Words that are fun to say: Oumuamua

That is the name of the first interstellar object seen in our solar system. A Russian billionaire and some scientists are trying to see if it’s emitting signals.

I’m not saying it’s aliens . . .

    Ah Papa Oumuamua?

    They talk about how a cigar-shaped object is thought to the most suitable for space travel.

    If the floors/decks are arranged like those of a sky-scraper rather than a submarine so that the direction of thrust imparts artificial gravity, that makes sense. But when it’s flipping end over end as is this rock, all that shit goes out the window.

    My money is on “not-ET”. Maybe it went through a black-hole and was spaghetti-fied.

    “I’m not saying it’s aliens . . . ”

    But asteroids are not previously known to be supplied in this shape. Boffins are trying to sell some unspecified “stretching” process-also not previously known. It’s tumbling randomly, and at 86-odd KPS it’s a painfully long time to or from anywhere. At the size of a submarine, it seems way small for deliberate interstellar travel. Spoiler alert: they’re dead, Jim.

    If it was a fucking alien spaceship would it be in the fucking news? Maybe there are 3 people left in America who think news does more than just repeat the BS the gov tells it too, maybe 3.

    Yet there are no photos. Just artist’s renditions and animations.

    Anyway, it’s mostly just click bait. Every atom in your body, and on this Earth, is an “interstellar object”. So what’s the big news?

    But are the aliens pro-2nd Amendment?

  7. Gerry Says:

    It’s always fricking aliens!

    Just remember, the Ramans do everything in threes. 😁

    I think we should round up a couple of whales in a clear aluminum tank just in case.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
