    Perhaps they are trying to communicate in the only way they know how...through the medium of dance?

      It reminds me of the London buses coming up to the last London Mayoral elections, with "Ken is a c**t" daubed on the rooves.

          I'm no expert - but it really dosn't look 'to scale' - the roundy bits are too small. To look as if they belong to the lengthy bit they'd need to be much bigger IMHO
          I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

              You won’t get much tea out of those bags.

                No, no, no, the aliens pick random green and blue planets throughout the universe and fire highly accurate lasers that are just strong enough to traverse 20,000 light years and knock down a bit of corn.

                It’s a sort of intergalactic cherry knocking.
                Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson
