    Commander Ross and his team got off the ship. The men took a deep breath and looked around. The sun was up. It was almost noon and the temperature had climbed. It was hot and the air was humid and smelled of decay. It was the typical feel and smell of the tropics. The vegetation resembled a rain forest on Earth. The thick bushes and trees, many with weird huge leaves and colored blossoms, seamed the ancient runway but had not overgrown or even touched it. “Like a runway in an Asian jungle,”

Out of curiosity, they said: "We must inspect and know it by touch, of which we are capable". So, they sought it out, and when they found it, they groped about it. In the case of the first person, whose hand landed on the trunk, said "This

    Operation Shiva is the biggest spaceflight mystery of all time. The spacecraft took off from Cape Canaveral on August 8, 2068.
