Nitro, Snaggy, I applaud you. Most people don't like to think that Earth based space exploration could be an invasion. Of course, we haven't found life on other planets, but what if it IS there? Imagine the thoughts going through the mind of an alien upon seeing the mars rover for the first time. Or if an alien civilization had picked up one of the voyager probes. I wonder what they would be thinking. I think it would probably be something along the lines of "OH CRAP! We though those fools on Earth would take a bit longer to get here!" ![[Smile]](smile.gif)

Well we know what would happen then. Didn't you see Star Trek: The Motion Picture? ![[Wink]](wink.gif)

thankfully, i have never seen any of the star trek movies all the way through. i enjoy the original star trek series, and TNG, but the movies? pffffft.

My favirote Star Trek movie is First Contact ( Which should be called the super long borg-o-rama MOVIE!)

The WotW JoT did make me think, and laugh. I think that it's one of my favourites.
