Are we sure this thing has been brought here under its own free will? Nobody's heard from it directly, it’s light-years away from its home planet, and Rocky was alone on that ship for years…

This- after decades alone, who knows what you’d do to have someone to watch you sleep again? Plus, there’s no way “Grace” is its real name. None of this is adding up

The human is currently deficient in like every possible nutrient. I don't think they're up for doing press right now.

That's just the thing, though. It's too weak to advocate for itself, and until we can translate its language we can't know for sure what it wants.

Huh, bilateral symmetry. So cool to see our ideas of what extraterrestrial life would look like blown out of the water!

Let’s be realistic. This thing is basically a cloud from a fire world that’s allergic to pretty much everything on our planet. It’s incredible that it made it here and we’ll probably learn a lot but it’s not sticking around for much longer

sooo does anybody actually remember this Rocky guy? what happened to everyone else?

Rocky was one of the engineers. There’s no official word yet on why they were the only one to live.

While this is obviously incredible news, let’s all remember the twenty-two lives that were lost to bring this incredible discovery back to us.

At least twenty-four if we include the aliens who died.
