So a global team of scientists are going to be closely tracking it for two months - as from today.
.....and they're still telling us it's just a comet - even though our planetary defences are about to go up.
All sorts of signs that it isn't a comet - eg changing track at intervals being the main one I guess.
Latest official photo a complete blur - but various amateurs have taken much better ones (ie that show it isn't just a comet). So how are we supposed to trust Earth scientists - when even amateurs are taking better photos than they are and it does seem odd just how bad NASA's photos are?
All sorts of theories coming out - on top of the pretty obvious official "It's a comet". Yeah right.....
My own personal take = it's an interplanetary probe. It's been ducking and diving near our adjacent planets (changing course to do so) and come next month it's our turn.
Makes sense to me - as obviously there are going to be loads of other species out there and lots of them will be more advanced than we are (technology-wise and/or as "people"). We ain't the only cookies on the plate.
To me - as a race as a whole we are very very primitive indeed. There's no doubt of that - considering the number of wars/amount of personal violence/amount of crime going on on Earth just how primitive we are as a race as a whole and it makes total sense to see how primitive our technology still is and, more to the point, how primitive we are generally as a species. Who wouldn't keep an eye on a primitive, aggressive race that was now technologically advanced enough it could manage to launch some spacecraft etc off Earth?
If I were any other species out there in space = I'd be keeping a darn close eye on us too in those circumstances and, seeing all those wars going on, would regard us as a threat. I do hope all nearby resident aliens realise there are some of us that are more advanced/nicer than all these warmongers etc we have on this planet.
Thoughts?
