The first confirmed alien object has visited our solar system Let's hope we still have some humpback Wales ehhh!
Could you imagine if it was an abandoned space ship? How quickly the earth would revolutionise itself (I would hope). I imagine all countries would make it their mission to slow it down so that it at least orbited the sun. We would spend billions just to investigate it. I can dream anyway. It's unusually elongated and appears to be made of metal. Heck, even if it's just a lump of metal I'll still be interested.
Can you imagine what happens if it was and any one country seizes it first...... For them selves.....
In an ideal universe it would be a world effort that put us in contact with other friendly alien species.... a Federation of Planets or something..... Also, even as a raw material it would be worth god knows how much.
Interestingly. I wonder how that would effect the world's market based capitalism, maybe it would be the push we need to create something better, whilst still respecting man's innate greed for having more bananas then the other dam dirty apes. Or just destabilise the entire market again......
"hello computer" At least we have moderate speech recognition computers now I hope it's not the Lewis & Clark returning from the future/ another dimension.
For that they would need a bill n ted style spacetime craft, I wonder how that would go, (note slightly naughty but not bad language)
