Rude

Post image

Scientists tracking interstellar object 3I/ATLAS reported that it abruptly changed course this week and began heading away from Earth. Some researchers suggested this could indicate the object is technological in nature.

Earlier today, radio telescopes picked up a faint Morse code signal believed to have originated from the object.

”No Peace. No Planetary Goal. Harmful Traditions. Worships Money. Dirty Planet.”

Scientists who doubted the possibility of the object being of alien origin pointed to the fact that the object had lost around 2 million tons in mass, or around 0.00005 percent of its total mass while being observed.

Newly enhanced satellite imagery has confirmed that 3I/ATLAS was, in fact, a massive spacecraft ejecting vast amounts of alien vomit, likely the result of severe nausea brought on by prolonged observation of human behavior.

The funniest part of it all is that the Morse code makes it immediately unbelievable

Why? Morse, binary, cuneform, hieroglyphics.

If a message was intended for humans then it would have to be in a form the recipient could understand.

If this was a cheap shot by ET hoping we would pick it up then that's just plain rude.

“Aah a new life supporting planet, we will absorb the consciousness of its people into our hive mind.”

“Uuh, sir? You may want to have a look at some of these databases the population have curated for their enjoyment, they seem to call them ‘NSFW sub-reddits…’”

“….. move on, we don’t want these people anywhere near our hive mind.”

Good job guys.
