Human occupied systems today woke to the troubling news a massive spiral-like object has been detected heading towards inhabited space.
Reaction has been mixed, from experts suggesting the object is swamp gas bouncing off Uranus to the public being urged "the object is not Galnets logo trying to kill us".
However, not everyone is panicking. In a lively Good Morning Mars chat segment, Far God enthusiast Edwin Bollard assured viewers "higher beings are coming"- while other, more agitated guests suggested the only 'higher being' was Bollard himself.
In a rare joint broadcast, leaders of the superpowers dismissed links between the Proteus Wave, Thargoid activity and the object, suggesting the spiral was a widespread rendering bug in ships HUDS introduced by the Winking Cat- "Everything is normal, everything is fine. HUD Update 14 will solve these issues" stated President Hudson. Later Emperor Duval called for calm and a visibly hungry Prime Minister Mahon ended the broadcast with a Pilots Federation appeal for Salvation Olives- "these totally non-serious and extremely normal events make me peckish".
