Anyone else following this story of the solar observatory that's been mysteriously shut-down all week due to an unspecified "security threat" which is crawling with FBI agents who are keeping the local authorities and facility staff in the dark? Washington Post StoryWe could probably crash the site listing off all the movies and TV shows this reminds us of. Of course, the longer this goes on without an explanation, the more I keep eyeballing our emergency go-bag and case of MREs.

Seriously, that's not creepy at all. Even more alarming is how low key the news has been about it, which makes it that much more suspicious

Talked about this with the wife last night.
The idea was suggested that an alien invasion would be thrown out there to make people support the Space Force idea. And while that's completely moronic and bonkers... What's sad is... You could see Trump selling that idea to his base, can't you?

I still hold to the theory that aliens and an advanced pan-galactic society does exist and that they just don't give two s##ts about us or our planet's paltry "resources"

We're viewed as a bunch of lunatics. We're Space Australia.
