Didn't anyone watch Lifeforce? |

Sometimes it's just a cigar. |

Good thing we still have a few humpback whales in the oceans.

Hmmm…. the usual collapse of the discussion. If we must discuss Lifeforce, remember that the craft was not extrasolar, rather space vampires from the Solar System that rode their ship, hidden in the coma of Halley's comet. This is more alien (so to speak) as it came from a star system 25 light years away. |

Talk about creepy. I just started reading Clarke's Rendezvous With Rama this week. Geeze. It starts the same way.

Lol! I believe there was a debate amongst the scientists who discovered Oumuamua. Some wanted to call the object Rama. |

It's just a quick in and out hyperbolic trajectory looking for signs of intelligent life.
It's looking to see if we send anything out to lasso it ( figuratively speaking) and bring it back. If we do…. |

Then they initiate Extermination Protocol Seventy-Five. |

Then they initiate Extermination Protocol Seventy-Five. That's "saturate their food with high fructose corn syrup", right? Or am I thinking of EP Seventy-four? |
