“There were no survivors. Our star won after the longest battle against mother nature. Like Icarus, we got too close. If you’re seeing this message, we are no longer here. This distress satellite was programmed to send Earth’s data as a planetary fail-safe to anything or anyone that can receive this data packet. The signal will project many millions of light-years. please use this data in whichever way you wish. a parting gift from our people.”

respectfully,

Dr. Sik Ether & The People of Earth
