Happy Alien Day celebrates the “Alien” film series on April 26th, reflecting the date’s resemblance to LV-426, the fictional setting in the movies. This fan-created holiday involves watching films, sharing content, and themed activities, emphasizing the blend of fiction with real-world intrigue surrounding alleged alien technologies and encounters.
But the involvement of real corporations in these celebrations is strange, contrasting our detailed knowledge of Mars with the less understood aspects of our own moon. How do we know so much about Mars and so little about our own Moon? How can corporations, with a straight face, that are likely involved in Crash Retrievals programs and technology transfers, ask us to celebrate Alien Day. Truth is strange than fiction.
