"The alleged discovery of a UFO near the sun — the star at the center of solar system in which Earth is the third innermost planet — "
Why did they feel the need to clarify that? I mean, I know public schooling gets a bad rep, but c'mon. A little faith, guys.
The mass relay was encased in ice inside of Charon. Huge frozen ocean inside of Charon is almost confirmed.
We are almost there...
It was incredibly dumb of the Mass Effect devs to use Charon as the host of the Sol Mass Relay. Charon is 80 times larger than the Mass Relay, and is 50% rock. Seeing how Mass Effect posits Charon was generated around the Relay, implying the Relay is at the core of the moon, the Relay would be crushed under Charon's immense weight. And even if it wasn't, humans at the time did not have the technology to excavate entire moons.
The more clever solution would have been to encase the Mass Relay in a 20 km pure ice asteroid orbiting Charon.

It was implied (if not outright stated, I'd have to double check - if not in the games then in the books) that simply remote activating the relay caused the rock and ice to melt, so it didnt need to actually be directly excavated.It was incredibly dumb of the Mass Effect devs to use Charon as the host of the Sol Mass Relay.

I've literally met people who didnt know that the Earth revolved around the sun.
The stupidity of humanity should not be underestimated.
What about when that dense woman said on The View, "Who's to say that the earth isn't flat?" and "Nothing came before Jesus." There's a fun conversation which nobody on the program decided to have with her.
the flat earthers are gaining ground.
Indeed. Flat-Earthism is actually still around, although less common than the more mainstream Creationist anti-evolution view. I view Flat Earthers as only slightly more stupid than Young Earth Creationists. Just slightly.the flat earthers are gaining ground.

I'm never sure if I buy that they actually think that but aren't just live action trollers. A step up from larpers actually. I kid.
Oh my, have to tell the guys in Sol space research to hide their toys better. It really cuts in the budget to pay for all these cover ups.

An oldie but goodie.
Southpark was so on the money this season.

Mass Effect is build on the complete ignorance of science. I'm not sure why people continue to be surprised by how half-baked these ideas are in the end.

i hope we never find alien life. too unpredictable. might wipe us out.
Don't forget the probing...
This is true. But, I standby previous statements that I've made that regardless that the mass effect completely violates laws of physics, it is actually really a rather clever idea for science fiction FTL lore. Probably one of the more clever science fiction ideas I've ever come across, actually.
So, I let Mass Effect get away with a lot since I do admire their initial creativity. ME3 tested my patience though.
My problem is that the idea of "negative" mass is only a concept in the sense that we can understand negative values mathematically, not because there's a cogent conceptual backbone to it. Whatever it is that ME does to justify FTL, ultimately I find it to be more confusing than anything.
But then I left the hard sciences for something very much not hard science-y, so I'm not a good example.

Not your best work, Bunz.
