I am still waiting for December 21, 2012 when the aliens come back to see what has happened to the civilizations and pyramids they left, to see what happened to the Mayan culture they left telling them don't worry about the calender, we will be back then to start another one.
Maybe this is them on their way.

I call foul. It's not Klingon. As you can plainly see, on the Klingon Bird of Prey, the wings are well back of the main body of the spacecraft. In the obviously photo-shopped photo from Hubble, the leading edge of the wings is forward & down. It is NOT Klingon.

might be Romulan. looks to be a bit of blue shift due to its distance and speed.

Are you a mole? Trying to convince us everything is OK? You can't fool us.

If it's the space men they're sure taking their time. 10,000 mph? That's an interstellar crawl.

That's what I was going to say. I think our Space Shuttle operates at something like $18K mph. Comets are to space shuttles as 917/30's are to soap box derby carts.

They are just sight seeing, they aren't in warp at this moment.
They have almost three years to get here.

OK Boys. Out with the .223, the .308 and dust off the old 12 guage - we'll show them who's boss around here (them ).

Have aliens merged gold and speed into some new equation?
