Not that I’m crazy enough to think it will happen, but today marks fifty years until the day upon which, according to star trek, humans will make first contact with alien life. Trek ore says that, on 5 April 2063, Zefram Cochrane tests the Phoenix, demonstrating warp drive by achieving Warp 1 for approximately one minute in the Solar system. A passing Vulcan ship, the T’Plana-Hath, detects the warp signature and lands in Bozeman later that evening, officially making first contact with Humans, changing our attitudes forever. I just thought I’d draw that to your attention, and direct you here.
