The old questions: Are we truly alone in this Galaxy? Are we one of a kind? Can something like Humanity exist only once in this Galaxy? In this Universe?

Will we ever getting an answer on those questions in any kind or form?

Maybe.

Just maybe.

But...

Maybe it is better to know that we are alone.

Maybe it is better to remain silent.

Because you... because WE have no idea how the first contact will look like.

You are sitting infront of a TV. The screen turns on, revealing an old man in a nice suit, sitting behind a desk. He looks at you, then he smiles. And then he starts to speak,

Narrator: "Hello, friends. Have you ever gazed up into the night sky and wondered at the possibility of life on other planets? What marvelous beings might exist out there, hands extended in friendship awaiting the moment when we humans take our first tentative steps into space? What tales will be told of that glorious day when we are first contacted by our brothers from beyond the stars?"

The screen turns off.

And with that begins this story.

Nevada, United States,
Nuclear Testing Area near Area 42,
9:10 AM

At this day, this fateful day, the US government started to test the next Generation of tactical nuclear missiles on their old Nuclear Testing Area. An area they have already used back in the Cold War in the 50s. A nuclear missile, 22 feet in length with the Code name: "Big Chungus" is standing on the launching site. Only a few hundred feet away stands the Command Bunker wich is connected to the launching site, it grants a perfect view. Only a handful of people are currently inside that bunker. The commanding officer, an General of the US-Army, a few scientists or also called "Eggheads" by the Soldiers and a few Guards. The start is imminent and the head scientist starts the countdown,

Dr. Kleiner: "Five!"

He takes a look on the other control panels to his left,

Dr. K: "All systems go, General. Four!"

The General looks through his binoculars,

US-G: "Come on, Baby. Show us what you've got."

He looks at the missile with a satisfied smile on his face. He and his men are all to eager to see what the newest Generstion of tactical nukes have to offer.

Dr. K: "Three!"

But suddenly something appears out of nowhere above the launching site,

US-G: "What the Hell?"

It hovers over the missile, like it was observing it, watching it. The General and his Soldiers have never seen something like this. The shape of that thing, the movement, like it was out of this world,

Dr. K: "Two!"

The General started to panic, that thing still hovers over the missile,

US-G: "What in the blue blazes is that?!"

Dr. K: "One!"

US-G: "No! Wait! Stop the countdow-"

Too late. The missile started and hits the Unknown Flying Object above it, causing it to detonate a few feet above the launching site and destroying it.
A mushroom cloud raises into the sky.
