BBC News have reported that, at midnight on the twelfth of August, a huge mass of luminous gas erupted from Mars and sped towards Earth. Mars is approximately two hundred million miles away, so the possibility of this flare reaching us is very small[1]. This flare was also observed on each of the next ten nights. Professor Ogilvy, of the University of Wales, Cardiff, described it as "a beautiful, but somehow disturbing sight". He went on to assert that there was no danger to earth - there are no living things on that remote, forbidding planet.

[1] Estimated at a million to one.

You know, I ALWAYS wanted the run the game in which I made the annoucement:

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I have an annoucement to make. Astonishing as it may seem both the evidence of our own eyes and the observations of science lead us to the inescapable conclusion that those strange creatures who landed earlier tonight are the vanguard of an invading army from the planet Mars."

Always wanted to.run that. The opportunity never presented itself.
