Blog post 21 - Daniel Brewer - in another place entirely

While I worked on my APUSH notecards and unit questions, eventually I came downstairs to eat something, when the screeching sound of the Fox Breaking News reared its ugly head:  


“BREAKING NEWS - UNIDENTIFIED OBJECTS FROM TRAPPIST-1 SYSTEM DETECTED, HEADED TOWARDS EARTH”

After processing the gravity of the statement, I first considered the Trumpian response, “FAKE NEWS!” but these thoughts were quickly dispelled when I realized the presence of a small circular logo in the corner of the video footage.  A small circle, with three spears.  I thought to myself “I thought they were just an urban legend, an internet hoax!” as the video footage of the Legionnaire rocket launch was played over the television screen.  The shot abruptly cut to still footage of the newly discovered planets in the background of an image of an alien rocket.  How they managed to get that picture… Well, I can imagine several methods, and they certainly have the funding necessary for it… Anyways, the reporter said that this rocket was headed to Earth.  Another rocket was already shot at Earth several millions of years ago, but Jupiter got in the way first.
