As a doctor speaking in absolutes for something that hasn’t been proven one way or another makes me question where you got your PhD from, but then I look and see it’s in journalism and it all makes sense.

1) It’s absolutely not aliens because there is zero evidence it’s alien technology, and a lot of evidence that it’s a comet 2) My PhD is in volcanology, so congrats on your poor comprehension skills
