Or really small spaceships? What was the story about the aliens
who come in for a landing, and their spaceship gets eaten by an
ameoba or something?

That's from the Hitchhiker's Guide.

Not the story I'm thinking of, which is earlier and a short story.

Is that the one with the video that's very fast, and the humans think
it's sped way up, but it turns out the visitors are fast and basically
microscopic?
