21/02/2002 Abigail: Reporting live from the CNN space station deployed in Mars Pete: No, No, No. More punctual! Abigail: Good evening viewers, good evening to those who are still inhabiting the blue sphere called earth. I Abigail Allwood, Australian geologist and astrobiologist, report to you from the CNN space centre in Mars. It is with a heavy heart that I must declare that the 21% of oxygen consuming earth has been replaced by Peroni Virus. The earth’s crust followed by its mantle is starting to deteriorate ultimately culminating in the inevitable last few days of the green sphere. As the days progress our beloved earth’s habitability index is slowly perishing similar to the souls and citizens of the world. From a rating that exceeded 0.9 points, this past figure has plummeted below Mars, which currently sits to be scathing 0.6 points. Resultantly, I urge each and every one of you lucky listeners to travel the 79 million kilometres to Mars. If not followed, death is the only option Pete: You know what they say… ‘Mars tugs at the human imagination like no other planet’… oh boy do I love reporting in minimal gravity. 62% less than earth that is. To be exact 30/02/2002 Pete: In 3,2,1, you’re live! Abigail: Good evening to any listeners who are still alive and well, the time has come. Evacuation is the only path to survival. The average surface temperate of our blue planet has plummeted to a colossal -500C from 14C. Earths liquid outer core has frozen. If the coldest winter in history doesn’t kill you the solar winds from the sun will. Peroni has broken down what used to be a highly functional magnetic field that protected us citizens from these winds, but our very own NASA space craft i.e. the ‘curiosity rover’ has collected rocks from earth, indicating that the suns winds will spin the earth into oblivion. There is no other route to survival. Find your nearest Space X rocket car. Now.

Pete: ha-ha jokes on you Paul Anderson ‘planet of no return’ more like planet that saves civilization. I like that. As a headline. Did you know Abagail, in the 1950’s that came out. Gheez, it feels as though it was the same time as when Galileo saw Mars through the telescope in 1609. Or even better, when William Herschel speculated that Martian inhabitants ‘probably enjoy a situation to our own’

Little did he know, that us humans are now the citizens of Mars. All because of that silly Trump. I’m glad the Peroni virus got the better of him 31/02/2002 Pete: Holy shmokes, get this on film. Abigail you’re live in, 3,2,1 Abigail: Our time is over, as I stand here, on the brink of Mars’ outer crust, I watch with despair and great angst. I watch my, our, beloved earth disintegrate in front of me. A livelihood dating back hundreds of thousands of years is over. Like the dinosaurs. The magnetic force produced by earth is ripping the entirety of the solar system into the suns reach. My team myself and I, only 229 million kilometres away from the burning star, will have perished in less than 10 minutes. As I come to terms with this experience, I Abigail Allwood, principal investigator for PIXL instrument, leave any listeners with the infamous words of SM Melton in 1936. ‘o planet mars of ruddy hue, how often have I gazed at you…. I wonder why you are so red; I wonder if your seas are dead, I wonder too as I look at you, about your people and what they do’ Goodbye civilization, farewell....
