Heading for Mars Colony 7 this weekend? Check out the New Toronto Museum of Exoplanetary Archaeology! Depiction of metallic vessels rescued from high geosynchronous orbit above Gliese 1061b. Low tech but exquisitely crafted, the 4D-printed designs are devoid of internal circuitry, let alone propulsion systems. Inside are the ashes of a plant with similarities to brassica oleracea (Terran wild cabbage) suggesting placement for religious or ceremonial purposes. Cosmic ray stratigraphy identifies the age of the so-called "cabbage crypt" as between 75K and 1 million local cycles B.T, although orbital decay would have occurred in a fraction of that time; Blancmange et al. argue that the protruding panels act as stabilizers, shifting the COG periodically by thermal expansion. MS profiles and the biomaterials rule out 1061b as the planet of origin, shifting attention to adjacent waterworld 1061c and snowy 1061d. Preliminary surveys are unpromising, but given the age of the artifact...
