Politics aside , everyone should be upset about this . <| sep |> So where would this picture be taken from today ? Like what stores would be around it ? I ' m having a hard time picturing it <| sep |> I completely agree , but whats done is done . The best we can do is ignore it and move on . Now that Trump is president he is under more pressure than he was before , we just have to not let it fracture us . <| sep |> Absolutely love it ! Are you the artist ? <| sep |> A Tale of Two MoonsFolingar Ia had , until mere centuries ago , been home to a species of primitive but prospering natives . Preliminary archaeological surveys indicate that the planetoid ' s population was divided into two power blocs , and though our analysts have yet to finish studying their records , it is safe to say this division was most likely driven by some sort of ideological difference . What makes this case special is the planetoid ' s proximity to Folingar Ib , a nearby moon which itself was colonized by an advanced precursor species catalogued as the Khamdai . Biological indexing suggests that , at the time , the native Folingari were in a presentient state and thus did not attract any further attention by the Khamdai . Folingar Ib was allegedly destroyed due to intense orbital bombardment in the war that drove the First League to collapse . The remains of the Khamdai colony must have been detectable from Folingar Ia from as far back as their first development of primitive long range telescopes , for the moons had independent orbits and thus would sometimes be visible from one another . Doubtlessly the Folingari realized the artificial nature of the ruined facilities on Folingar Ib , but it was also around this time that the various smaller tribes on the planetoid began amalgamating in two large alliances . The looming conflict had kickstarted their technological development , and the ruins of Folingar Ib promised great rewards for anyone who would get there first . Chemical sublight engines , albeit crude by our modern standards and very early in development , saw rapid advances at the time , most likely due to increased military budgets and research into rocket artillery whose knowledge was then applied to spaceflight as well . Though both factions began working on an independent space program and were on somewhat equal footing , one of the blocs managed to launch their craft before the other . We assume the journey was made when two moons were in close alignment to maximize efficiency and reduce risks . The mission itself was a success as well , with the crew touching down on Folingar Ib and spending a solar standard day or so surveying the area before returning to the orbiter . Unfortunately , the mission was being played up as a significant step towards some sort of final victory by local propaganda , which in turn increased the opposing faction ' s worry and global tensions drastically . Fearing that the spaceship would return with an advanced weapon , possibly of the same kind that was used to devastate Folingar Ib aeons ago , the remaining power bloc opted for a preemptive strike . The devastation we see on the surface of Folingar Ia is consistent with the data past survey missions to other dead worlds has yielded for a global thermonuclear holocaust yet another species that would never step into the stars , their potential nullified by primitive tribalism , paranoia and internecine conflict , and a salutory lesson for certain younger empires that have recently developed FTL capability together with territorial aspirations or rampant xenophobia . In a final twist of the galaxy ' s most cruel irony , we have also recovered the derelict spaceship still orbiting Folingar Ia centuries after its crew ' s demise . It seems the ship reached its homeworld just as it was being destroyed , and the crew opted to remain in orbit rather than descending . Autopsy suggests the crew committed suicide , though we were unable to account for all the bodies mentioned in the manifest . The feared alien artifacts stored in the spaceship ' s cargo hold , supposedly capable of doing what the Folingari ended up doing on their own power , have been recovered and identified as a selfpowered gardening tool , a collapsible figurine and a data crystal containing approx . 24 petabytes of Khamdai folk music , presumably the possessions of a former colonist . We were unable to detect any traces of a weapon system present on Folingar Ib . End reportDr .
