FARMER FINDS SPACE JUNK IN HIS FIELD

A farmer in rural Saskatchewan, Canada, recently discovered a 7-foot long, 3-foot wide, 80-pound heap of twisted, burnt metal out in one of his fields. Noticing the multiple layers of charred composite fibres, he suspected it was space debris. (*’cause many Canadian farmers hold degrees in Astrophysics Engineering.) A group of astronomy professors heard about the case and investigated and agreed that it was space debris from a SpaceX rocket that was launched back in February. Large chunks of metal from space have recently been found in Australia and Washington state, and one smashed through the roof on a house in Florida. So far, Space X hasn’t come to claim the debris from Sawchuk. (* And why would they. We all exist to do Elon Musk’s bidding anyway.) Farmer Sawchuk said he’s going to try and sell the space remnant, and put the money toward building a hockey rink for his town.
* Seriously? Is a lot of that 80-pounds pure gold?
* He did notice that the corn in that field was growing exceptionally tall, and he can hear it talking.
* And here I can get fined $200 if I don’t pick up my dog’s poop. It doesn’t seem fair.
* Wasn’t this an episode of Outer Range?
* In other TRUE news, Space X is planning to launch 90 more rockets by 2026, in addition to the 50 they have launched so far.
