Has NASA Made First Contact?

[mrwoo6]

We all want some cool, awesome alien species that are intelligent and let us live like we're in Mass Effect, but in all reality, it'll probably just be some bacteria they found on Uranus :/.

You mean Urectum, right?

OT: Dear sweet Jesus, I hope it's a moon made entirely of chocolate.

There does seem to be a trend to make chocolate bars after space, mars, galexy, etc..

 

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

Well I am personally hoping, using strictly logical deductions of course, that we have discovered Space Jesus.

 

[Singularly Datarific]

No, it was made by Paramount

OP: Oh. Cool!

"that will impact the search for evidence of extraterrestrial life."
Hate to be a killjoy but that could simply mean budget cuts.....

 

[Rune Kristiansen]

The best proof of an intelligent extraterrestial specie is the fact that they haven't contacted us.

 

[Dyp100]

I think we should find turians. I like turians.

yay first contact war?

It's more the peacemaking afterwards that pleases me.

Ninja, aren't you an alien anyway?

 

[Atmos Duality]

......i dont get it.

Bone is slang for both sex and murder.
Though most people associate the slang term with sex.

On topic: Well, it could be worse. NASA might announce that we just made contact with the cast from Star Fox.

 

[whycantibelinus]

i hope they are sexy aliens.

I wonder which sexy intergalactic smurfs it will be? Asari or Navii? Im taking bets!

Since the Navii are incapable of interstellar flight I'm going to place my bet on the sweet, sexy Asari.

Umm, Yuki. Did you have something to do with this?

Yuki N. > No.

Oh, okay. Do you know what it is, then?

Yuki N. > Yes.

And you're not going to tell us. Are you?

Thought not.

OT: Please be microbes on Titan. Please be microbes on Titan.

we knew about alien bacteria for years. it isn't alien bacteria.

????? Do mean the stuff they thought was alien but was shown to have originated here, as that's not what we are talking about. And NASA would look pretty stupid announcing bacteria like that.

 

[likalaruku]

Probably jellyfish that fly/swim in a sea of gases.

no, NASA is being dismantled next year. That isn't "budget cuts" since it needs to exist in order to cut on a budget.

NASA being dismantled?...that sucks! Boo-urns!

 

[That's Funny]

I'll prepare a sacrifice in honour of our new masters, now I'm thinking about sacrificing Bieber to our overlords, since he can't contribute to their nasty (or nice) plans.

 

[Scabadus]

Maybe we should hold off on wanting to have sex with anything until...

I don't get it.

Truth of the matter is, I don't think any alien would be well-advised to get on Earth's bad side... We still have enough firepower to blow our own planet to bits several times over, and the means of delivery are essentially the same stuff we use to put satellites into space.

And their means of delivering themselves to us are essentially the same stuff we use to... oh wait we don't yet. Any alien race advanced enough to get to Earth is going to be advanced enought to move a little bit to the side if we fire nukes at them. That's if they don't have shields, or even a laser defence grid like what we can build now! What's your plan here, if they piss us off we messily annihilate ourselves at them? That'll learn 'em!

Not to mention that they'll probably fire back and then we're all crispy-fried Alderan.

 

[ph0b0s123]

Damn it, they've have worked out I'm not from this planet....

 

[Ithera]

Probably nothing worth my time. I'll save my enthusiasm for the big events.
