[garbled incoming transmission]
-hyperbolic trajectory
-abrupt delta-v
-inertia
-spectroscopic analysis
-reflected sunlight
-irregular patterns
-light curve analysis
-energy signature
-intergalactic origin
-Kardashev Type III
-plane of motion
-Andromeda

We travelled from Andromeda
Now power down the drive
Decelerating energy
How many of us have survived?

We’re falling to the planet
They call it planet Earth
We’ve worshipped her for hundreds of years
Now we’ll find out what she’s worth

Oceans, plains and forests filled with life
Salt water in liquid form
Free nitrogen and oxygen, just floating there
In an atmosphere that’s warm

We can tolerate her day and night
Shallow tides, in the habitable zone
A benign and stable yellow star
It’s a paradise we can call home
