Ok, now this is really intriguing.
 

Scientists are actually not ruling out aliens.

Astronomers have found a mysterious alien object near a distant star - Business Insider

I so want them to find out we're not alone before I exit this orb.

Eh, it's probably just another monolith.

Psst we already have a thread for this kind of thing: http://www.musicbanter.com/current-e...tech-news.html. Try searching around before you start a thread man, you don't have to start from scratch whenever you want to share something with us.

Still very cool and intriguing though. Could be a simple anomaly, it could not. It's too bad that if it is aliens, we're seeing them 1500 years after their fact and are basically incapable of contacting them (at the moment).

Of course of course

Regardless of what causes it, this is very interesting.

What's up with that though?

Too soon to tell, the exact date we will make first contact will be on April 1st 2026.

That's when the aliens will come down and sue us for using the technology of their crashed ships to advance our technology.
