History 2035 - 2039

---------------------------Cut to Oval office--------------------------

“It has been the tradition to begin any address to you as ‘fellow citizens’, or, ‘fellow Americans’. Today we break with tradition

My fellow Humans,

Since our race first looked to the heavens we have asked ourselves if we are alone in the galaxy - if we are the sole inheritor of a galaxy gifted to us by the creator, or if there might be others out there, imbued with the same spark of divine fire that resides in us.

Today, I can tell you that we are not alone in the universe.

The United States can confirm that it has encountered an alien life form which has been confirmed beyond doubt to be an extraterrestrial intelligence.

This discovery is significant for all of us on planet earth for several reasons, and the United States commits now in front of the world to co-operate fully with all other nations in exploring the consequences of this and we commit to providing full access to the information we hold to the scientists of the world.

The prospect of contact with a non terrestrial intelligence has always been an inherently dangerous proposition, though the great thinkers of our time have spent decades considering this risk none have come close to preparing for the circumstances we find ourselves in

The sad truth is that this discovery has not come from the detection of a signal from another civilization, nor has it come in the form of a hand reaching out in friendship - it has come in the form of an attack against us.

Several days ago,  units of the US Marines were deployed into Earth orbit to attempt to board, capture or destroy the unknown satellites that jammed all conventional communication networks. As these forces moved to board one of the objects the four others detonated in nuclear fire leaving no remains, while this single object moved to enter Earth’s atmosphere. The marine team, aware of the threat this object could pose, immediately informed us of the flight path of the object before manually maneuvering the SLS Rocket which carried them into space to re-enter Earth's atmosphere and follow the UFO, which came down in the Nepalese mountains. Upon landing the marine team found the debris of the crashed object. Approaching the crash these brave men encountered a creature emerging from the wreckage. The creature made to rush towards the team but before any member raised their gun to fire in self defense it dropped to the ground dead. The body of this creature was secured and recovered.

Our scientists are now working to determine anything they can about this creature.

Here, in this picture, you can see the remains of the creature, short, thickly built creatures, with 6 arms, furry heads and pink skin. The garment it wears is a manufactured fabric and most likely some kind of uniform.

These creatures, whoever they might be, have attacked us. In jamming global communications they attempted to use the mistrust that has grown between many of the nations on this planet as a weapon against us - they have attempted to use our own mistrust as a weapon - to have us obliterate ourselves.

Given the complexity of their electronic jamming we believe that they may have also used some means to convince the Chinese military it had detected a North Korean WMD launch, the response from China was no doubt intended to then spur all other nations to enter into a full nuclear exchange - a war of mutual destruction.

Thank God we have not, because the apparent intention of these creatures was to see us all die by our own hands.

Today, it is my sad duty to inform you that we are at war with an unknown alien species, creatures who can have no reason to fear us, or who could have no cause to hate us unless it is an unthinking one.

The cradle in which our species is developing has been threatened - we intend to ensure it is defended.

We will work with all nations to ensure that we can protect our planet - it will call for the development of a new type of fighting force but we must ensure that these creatures cannot cause direct harm to us

Above all we must ensure that they cannot attempt to turn us against one another for their own ends.

I appeal to all of you, no matter where you come from, no matter which faith you hold dear we must stand together now in defense of our home - we must stand united in the defense of Earth.

Asteroid Apophis Returns with Puzzling Orbit: Houston, USA: The 40 million tonne asteroid famous for making close approaches to the Earth has returned but scientists are puzzled at its current trajectory. While still ranked at a 0 on the Torino scale, refined observations have repeatedly updated the path of the huge mass that is slightly, but definitely different, than predicted from what are described as “…equally refined calculations”. Noting that the motion of the asteroid is remarkably erratic, NASA scientists are at a loss for why their calculations are so far off and refused to comment if any further changes will put the Earth in peril. The asteroid was last seen in 2029 during a close approach when it did not enter narrow ‘keyhole’ which could have resulted in a possible strike of Earth in 2036. Closer spectroscopy analysis shows a high percentage of rare metals on the asteroid’s surface, which has led to some speculation about mining these valuable minerals except Apophis’ unusually fast tumbling motion likely precludes any kind of landing.

UN Space Agency Warns Space Risk: “Now that we’re launching so many orbital platforms and zero-gee hotels up there, there is just too much junk just floating about. Just yesterday we noticed five identical class IV objects in crowded orbits that suddenly appeared out of nowhere and won’t answer hails...who was crazy enough to put up something that massive without bothering to telling us! They won’t even answer any of our hails and we have had to route traffic around them… Sooner or later if we don’t clean up low earth orbit the consequences will be horrific.

Cracks in the Crystal Palace: Tensions between Crystal Palace members have spilled over and are currently threatening to tear apart the international coalition which currently operates the worlds largest space program. Inside sources have said that arguments began when Russian and German officials questioned each others use of station facilities. Russian representatives have objected to German space ships using the terminals to resupply without recompense to Russia for resources being used for this purpose which Russia believes it owns. In response Germany and the UK have both retorted that unscheduled launches to install Russian orbital facilities including an outpost module have disrupted work and highlight what one leaked UK report calls 'a complete inability to co-operate with other members as equals or communicate their intentions without insulting or condescending'.

Project Stahlhammer Update: Bonn, Germany: The paper aims to analyze the tests conducted, highlighting the impact of radioactive pollution on the atmospheric, aquatic, and underground environments. Special attention was given to the concentration of main radioactive isotopes which were released, such as 14C, 137Cs, and 90Sr, generally stored in the atmosphere and marine environment. In addition, an attempt was made to trace the spatial delimitation of the most heavily contaminated sites, and to note the human exposure which has caused a statistically significantly increase incidence of thyroidal cancer locally and regionally. Germany is one of the important examples of assessing the correlation between the increase in the thyroid cancer incidence rate and the continental-scale radioactive contamination with 131I, a radioactive isotope which was released during the weapon tests carried out in the Truppenübungsplatz Heuberg site. -Abstract of German Ministry of Defense paper

Logs of Nearby Sonar Detectors: Copenhagen, Denmark: Analysis: note presence of powerful bursts at the same time and location of the lost ships, this is somewhat correlated with the survivor testimony. Examination of the tanker wreckage by AUV show ramming by large object or fuel-air concussive blast or similar unknown sonic weapon. Conclusion: Unknown state-level actor responsible, resolution of which would force elimination of emergency shipping rates resulting in a 14% Q4 drop in profitability and cancellation of insurance coverage. Recommendation: Expand upon project Star Hammer to include Efes conglomerate’s proposal of mimetic action blaming losses on renegade North Korean submarines. Explain any irregularities on the recent crash of the Nice data centre. -Internal memo compiled for Maersk Risk Management Division

Clashes On Egyptian-Libyan Border: “5 days ago Egyptian military forces breached the defences set up by ENI to protect Libyan oil fields. You can see behind me the devastation caused by Egyptian bombardment of the town of Bi'r al Ashhab.“ In response to the worsening Military situation, the Libyan government has given the ENI board full control of the military. ENI has brought in additional Private Military Contractors who have pushed the Egyptians back to this point.

Georgia and NATO - a Weakened Alliance: ‘Was it all worth it?’ Those are the words of one Georgian lawmaker - Russian aggression in Azerbaijan and the humiliating peace terms that have seen Azerbaijan surrender 2/3rds of its land and NATO’s refusal to intervene has lead to despair amongst Georgians. At an emergency meeting of the NATO council the Georgian representative spat vile at the alliance. Later, in a press conference, the same representative questioned the relevance of the alliance and stated no NATO supplies would pass through Georgia until NATO peacekeeping forces are deployed to the Georgian-Russian Border.

Out! Ankara, Turkey: The shuttle diplomacy drive by the British Foreign minister has broken down in his attempt to have an agreement from both Turkish and Kurdish governments to a peace conference to try to settle disputes over the borders between the two nations. In particular, Turkey gave Sir Wallace 1 hour to leave the country under notice that his plane would be shot from the sky if he ever tried to return.

I am going to eat pizza, sleep well for a week and then I will go the Kirmes and complete plan مطرقة من نجوم. We will meet in Paradise! -Message between the Islamic Caliphate Ali Directorate and the Leadership Council, intercepted by Allied troops, Ramadi occupation zone, 2039

The People's Most Glorious Republic of Best Korea: Pyongyang, North Korea: For nearly a century, the Glorious People's Republic of Korea has led the world in wealth, technological prowess, honor, food production, peace, war, electricity, harmony, and freedom. Our lead in all these areas continues to expand unabated, leading to our ascension to a nigh-invulnerable higher plane of existence. All of this would be impossible without the grand and glorious leadership of Kim Jong Un, Guardian of Korea, Defender of the People, Supreme Ruler of all that is Good on Earth, Soverign of all that the Light Touches.

Other, lesser, nations continue to be jealous of our radical success in all fields. Our glorious national policy of *juche* cannot be defeated! Except by the nefarious influence of hostile foreign capitalist pig-dogs! The evil influence of this international gang of petty thugs and childish imperialists corrupts the whole world. The loathsome fear of the dirty and depraved capitalists leads them to sabotage our factories and farms. But we have the last laugh! We are too strong to be hurt by their sinister sabotage! Nothing can hurt Best Korea as long as we are protected under the gentle hand of Kim! Jong! Un!

However! The patience of our infinitely patient Leader grows thin! The unconscionable evils perpetrated against the loyal people of Korea by sinister Western overlords must cease! These Western devils will pay reparations for their heinous acts, in the amount of US$750 billion, or they shall face the unstoppable might of Korea!

Our nuclear arsenal is unstoppable! We have three nuclear bombs for every person on earth. Each tiny, dirty shack the evil Americans are forced to live in by their even more evil government is targeted by two dozen high-yield hydrogen bombs. We have asteroids aimed at every imperialist-capitalist military base on earth.

If we are not paid US$750 billion the world will receive a swift and judicious punishment, as from God Himself (who is just an invention of capitalist pig-dogs), meted out by the fair and handsome Kim Jong Un. We, the ever faithful people of the People's Republic of Korea, will be saved in the anti-matter powered starship which Kim Jong Un designed and built himself.

All glory to Kim Jong Un! All glory to Korea! All glory to juche!
