In His presence the mountains quake and the hills melt away; the earth trembles and its people are destroyed. Who can stand before His fierce anger?

didn't we already glibly cover how it was all MIC graft? how much more hard science can you get?

do you want the atomic weight of unobtanium or something?

look, bob bigelow gave laura logan, the most credible journalist on television, a double pinkie swear with triple stamp no erase that he had a room full of alien spaceship ufo rocket parts

and no, you can't see them right now because they are very dusty and the cleaning lady had to go home early to pick up her kids from soccer practice so the spaceship parts are too dusty to look at right now



if that isn't enough proof for you then nothing ever will be because you're just a contrarian and you might as well stop trolling this thread before you feel even more dumb when the cleaning lady gets back and a bunch of shiny dust free spaceship parts get passed around

this is what the alloys are supposedly

"The metal is made in layers that alternate from 1 to 4 microns of pure bismuth with a magnesium-zinc alloy that is 100 to 200 microns thick. For comparison, a human hair is about 100 microns wide, so that’s about the size of the magnesium-zinc layers. A red blood cell is about 8 microns in diameter. So the pure bismuth layer is twice the width of a red blood cell.

Like an exotic metallic torte cake 26 layers high, there’s a 1 to 4 micron layer of pure bismuth and then 100 to 200 microns of magnesium-zinc; then another layer of pure bismuth and another layer of magnesium-zinc and so on for 26 layers. Each metal piece was about 2 to 3 inches wide and was formed with a curvature that tapered"

the sinister aliens have mastered the exotic art of blast welding and soon will be producing counterfeit quarters and stealing all of our diet cokes
