The problems with MIR.

Last issue, we reported that life has been found on Mars, made up of hamster colonists. Since that report, we have found that the hamsters have a far more advanced technology than we could ever have imagened.

Here, we see the hamster space craft attacking an unseen foe. Unfortunately, the Russian space station Mir frequently gets in the way. This is the cause of all it's recent problems.

We tracked the light beams on our astronomical computers. We see that the hamster's target is in the vicinity of the Jovian moon Europa, the other candidate for life in the solar system off the Earth.

Europa is planet covered in water, but being so far from the sun, it should be a frozen ocean of ice. Jupiter is the key here. It's huge gravitational forces are constantly moving the moon's core, generating heat from massive tidal forces, the same which produces Io's volcanic activity. The heat melts some of the ice into habitable water. Here lives the Europans.

Far from being primitive life forms. The Europan's are also technologically advanced. Here we see an underwater dome where they live.

Why are the Martians attacking Europa so close to Mir? We do not know at present. The only theories we can think of are,

1. A show of force to the Earth governments.
2. They want the Europans to believe that the humans are responsible for the attack.

Why are the Martians attacking Europa? Can we expect a response from the Europans?
This story will run and run. We will keep you informed.
