Methods, Supplies, And Specimen

METHODS

As stated in the Introduction, most methods are my sketches and notes taken of the specimen retrieved. There are some pictures of their technology found on site with some of the wreckage, some drawings of what I remember near the wreckage, and some pictures taken near the crash site. As I will explain later, I did not have sufficient time to take photos of the crash site before the government caught word of the place. Therefor, all I have pictures of are my highly detailed sketches, some of their alien technology, and my detailed notes on alien anatomy and how I speculate on how their anatomy works. More than enough proof.

I use standard dissection procedures, although I don't consider myself an expert on the process, I have dissected a few animals and am familiar with much of human anatomy. I will draw comparisons of the specimens' anatomy to our own, and hypothesize about why their are so many similarities.

SUPPLIES

I consider this what I call a poor man's dissection. The reason is because:

Gloves used to protect myself from possible unknown alien pathogens or toxic material.

Wearing a lab coat and goggles to protect my body and eyes. Actually, you can't tell, but I have a face mask in  the front pocket.

Not really ideal, but they'll get the job done in terms of incisions. Took forever to make sure they were eeeeeeeextra sharp.

Not really supply related, this shot is mostly for the ladies. Single, and looking. Interests: Long walks on the beach, hiking, and dissecting alien species.

As I get new supplies, I will keep you guys up to date.

SPECIMEN


Specimen are kept in the the garage, in large plastic totes glued together to provide insulation, and the totes with specimen are filled with frozen water. Since I don't really have access to a huge freezer that the bad guy from the first season of Dexter had, I am constantly having to refill the ice. I am lucky though, while I have been keeping these specimen in my house, it has been winter and I haven't once turned on the heater (I'm going green). Specimen seem to be keeping fresh even after a month of keeping, which makes me speculate about the decomposition process which will be dealt with in a future post.

There are three specimen retrieved from the crash site. Here's the run down.

• Specimen #A: Nicknamed Alice
• Appears to be female.
• Has unusual dark gray markings on posterior.

• Specimen #B: Nicknamed Beatrice.
• Appears to be female(no visible shlong).
• Tallest subject out of all three specimen.

• Specimen #C: Nicknamed Cecillia
• Appears to be female
• Only one with weird dark bump on center of frontal portion of the skull.

They are all named women because they appear to be "female," (whatever that means for aliens). Also they are the only girls in my life. I like to think of them as my alternative to an actual social life. The reason I did this is to make a sort of short hand when describing these strange and biologically complicated specimen. While describing and annotating my sketches, I may make analogies to human anatomy, but I assure you these similarities are only skin deep. These organisms are an amazing example of convergent evolution, as you will no doubt see in future posts. High five, Darwin.

Actual anatomy posts are coming in a few days. Some of the diagrams need clearing up.

Introduction

Some might ask the obvious question.

"Is this a hoax?"

And that question has a simple answer: No. I really wish that it was. My discovery, and my painstakingly detailed notes and drawings may look like the rantings of a crazy person completely unaware of what reality really is, but it's not. I wish I could go back in time, completely ignore the fire in the sky from which the wreckage fell, and just ignore that my discovery's implications: That we are not alone in the universe, and that the significance of man has been reduced once again. What's done is done.

Since the beginning of our true understanding of space, man has looked up at the stars and speculated about the existence on life on other planets. Sometimes, even speculating further that the life might be comparable to our own intelligence. Perhaps even greater. As a student in biology, I've always found this question interesting only on the level of understanding the likelihood of the arrival of life. The more I learned about the chemical laws that dictated life's various operations, the more I found it likely that life was probably common. However, I thought the question always to be mere hypothetical and completely untestable.

I did not expect the answer to my philosophical and hypothetical pondering to come crashing from the sky. Tonight, when I look at the night sky instead of wonder, mystery and the unknown, I will look upon the dark shroud of terror that encompasses our globe and only unknown that will cross my thoughts will be the unknown future to our very species.

This is not a rant. Only a warning. My only hope for publishing these notes here is to spread the knowledge that I have gained as fast as possible. Perhaps, despite their obvious superiority, they may have a weakness. We can only hope.

Another motivation for publishing my notes is that you know that I am not just some crazy guy on the internet. I really have proof. I have been a skeptic all my life, but when you have a specimen, you have a specimen. These notes detail mostly the biology of these creatures (in part, due to my fascination with biology and anatomy), as I am not able to place them within a certain phylogeny as of yet since I haven't been able to access any equipment that would allow me analyze their DNA. In this includes my detailed sketches straight from my notebook during the dissection process, descriptions of pieces of their technology, and of course, some of the many things I had to go through when I had to locate and retrieve these specimen in the hills right outside of Yosemite National Forest.

I will let my notes and my sketches speak for themselves.
