I woke up the next morning at 6 O'clock, energetic even though I slept at 1 AM, observing the unusual midnight. I walked out to find a bundle of newspaper in which the first one had big red text "Life or Death, Be ready to be sphagettified". I looked at the sky. It was as blue as ever with a few yellow and pink streaks of light. If not for the headline on the newspaper, I would have gotten a mat, spread out on the lush green lawn and readied myself to be sun-tanned. Alas! the headline had gotten in the way of my relaxing and energy saving day. I read further in to that page of the newspaper. It kept talking about the readings on the gravity telescope (the Galileo-max 9001). It is a sleek black gravity telescope which is about a Kilometer long. It was named after Galileo (1564-1642), even after 2 millennia since, he found a lot of celestial objects including Jupiter's four largest moons. You are free to call me a nerd now! It told about the high levels of gravity emitted by a black hole. The readings were so high, the scientists assumed it was probably close by. I dropped the newspaper inside my house and stared at the neatly paved road with bright white dividers. It was rapidly filling up with hover cars which left the road spotless, as if it was new. Peaceful.
