This is specifically a homage to the X-Men swimsuit special. It would be only appropriate.

We have to assume this was after the reforms Zek enacted took affect.

Does he know what a recession is? Genuinely asking. That would help understand this response.

Uh… I regret this.

Little Saddie… in the ass.

I guess wherever there is support of the Israeli state, there is a Nazi behind that.

By that logic they saw a god. But I’d ask if they need a starship first. Then that would confirm if they were a god.

No, and that is based on the novel Spaceman of Bohemia by Jaroslav Kalfar which people thought was a rip off of Project Haily Mary by Andy Weir (which I read and loved). When the trailer for Spaceman was released, Weir had to go on social media and tell fans Spaceman of Bohemia was published before his novel.

EDIT: I did not read Spaceman of Bohemia.

He wasn’t rejected. He failed the entrance exam. He was literally competing against multiple other people and didn’t score the highest. Not a lottery.

Or worse, you meet the super intelligent giant spider your human ancestor left behind, and you accidentally start a war with them because no one realizes the computer on the ancient satellite is made to behave like the project founder is trying to make first contact.

Tap for spoilerThe project founder accidentally died, the computer AI fails to keep them alive and the spiders start to think the satellite is a god. Then they enslave the native ants.

The big problem is no one remembered to tell the humans on Earth about the experiment. Or the humans on the generation ship that knew died centuries ago.

EDIT: If you haven’t figured it out, I’m describing the novel Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky.
