Astronomers Discover Planet Identical To Earth With Orbital Space Mirror, The Onion
“In what many are hailing as the most significant development in the history of space exploration, NASA scientists announced Thursday that a planet seemingly identical to Earth has been discovered by the agency’s Orbital Space Mirror. According to NASA, the $2.9 billion aluminum glass mirror, which stretches over 180 feet wide and 147 feet tall, has already produced invaluable data suggesting that our solar system may contain a terrestrial planet of the exact same size, shape, and surface composition as Earth.”
Powerboats on Mars, earlier post (1998)
“Despite suggestions in various news tabloids, project scientists were quick to dispell any suggestion that the branched structure seen northeast of the dam-like structure is a marina. In making this statement, project scientists point out that there is very little air on Mars and that sailboats would be impractical nor is there enough Oxygen to support the internal or external combustion engines used in powerboats.”

    Fantastic! 😉 Though, what a curious –and dismaying– discovery it will
    be for our spacefarers when they arrive at this new world only to discover that its most magnificent examples of civilization are predominantly inhabited by mewling, tribalistic beings, strung out on aspartame and caffeine, dis-unified by lack of a common language and unable to identify –even from a photograph– their own leaders.

    Does this mean that Earth is no longer a planet since it apparently hasn’t cleared its orbit?
