Apart from the moon, geostationary satellites and low earth orbit (LEOs) paraphernalia, our Earth has a number of items orbiting.

One has no real background and has been puzzling scientists for a few days, another has been named Cruithne and is in somewhat in an eccentric orbit, owing to the effects of the moon on the object.

And there are quite a few others

Cool.

It's a frikin' alien space ship, obviously.

I wonder if they have any advanced cipher cracking experience?!?!?

Im somewhat worried that they are going to let this stuff back into the planets atmosphere without it having been 'cleaned' by the normal method of incineration.

Scientists have always believed the process of life on earth must have occurred using pollenation from outside sources, bringing another in contact with us could have some undesireable consequences.
