Anyway the article was written such a way I couldn't help smiling.

Nevada News Scooper is Las Vegas' answer to The Onion.

There is no independent confirmation of the amateur astronomer's claims, which should be considered completely bogus.

At least he got his picture on someone else's website.

So is Schlock Mercenary. It's also science-fiction, just like the NNS article you cited.

I'm sorry, but didn't we destroy the transwarp conduit that would've prevented something like this from happening again ?

With the help of the federation we are finally individuals. Why won't they just leave us alone.
