Ladies, Gentlemen, that technicolor rainbow in between....fuck it, the whole human race, even those I dislike need to hear about this. In the past 2 years, we've been dealing with a pandemic that while not as long lasting, has really did a number on the world. Changing the way we usually do things regardless of where we come from. However, one thing we always differed from, regarding it, at least those who know it's real and not those that think it's fake; is the origin of where it comes from. Some people insist on China. Myself included. With some thinking it was a lab accident gone haywire, others thinking it was some kind of bioweapon gone loose. I myself thought some idiot janitor at Wuhan labs sold the tainted animals at the wet market for extra cash. Others think the US did it to sabotage China and it spread all over. Some even just dismiss it all and say it just happened, that it's an evolved form of it's predecessors like SARS.
However, what I am about to tell you is not only the craziest idea, but one that does come across as a conspiracy theory when you first read it. Just not a government one. Now I don't use the term in admittance, ever. Because I always try to rationalize the situations that are often accused of the conspiracy part. For example, many who claim say Marvel sabotaged DC and Vice Versa are dismissed as such, when I simply say something along the lines of "It's not even a conspiracy let alone a theory. Conspiracies are hidden, this was out in the open and very typical corporate bullshit." This was a revelation that came to me not too long ago and I really hope to God I am wrong about this, because if I'm right, I get the feeling that even if the pandemic ends, we may be in for something worse.
Before I explain. A little context. As many know, I've done an article about movies that predicted the future. With my personal belief that through The Thing and They Live, John Carpenter helped predict Covid-19 exactly. Specifically, the Thing being the first outbreak and They Live on how we as a species dealt with it. I may list other movies in the future as I found more, but that's another article for another time.
I was watching this clip:
It's the opening scene of the 1978 version of Invasion of The Body Snatchers. When I first saw this movie, I caught it halfway through on TV, so up until a few years ago, I never seen this opening before. Yet I couldn't stop watching it for one specific reason. For context, in the 1956 version the titular pod people that invade and duplicate the human race, came from plant spores from another planet and somehow managed to get to Earth to start their invasion. In this version however, rather than simply spores, they are transparent, amorphous, gelatinous beings that resemble single cell organisms rather than merely plant life and it wasn't until they landed on Earth's trees that they became Seedpods. Turning into small flowers to lure in victims to take them home so they could kill and duplicate them. While at the same time, living off the leaves they spread to for nourishment. Like a parasitic symbiotic virus. Sound familiar?
We've been so focused on where on EARTH this thing came from, looking down in a way, when we should have looked up. Beyond the sky, beyond the atmosphere and into the vastness of Space.
Now before anyone says it yes, a movie like Invasion of The Body Snatchers is less likely to happen. As those pods, be it seed spores or flying sentient shape-shifting germs would no doubt burn on re-entry. However there is one vital clue that shows how these things may have come to earth. At a certain angle when the Body Snatchers are flying about empty space, some of them at a far distance seemed to twinkle resembling stars. I couldn't tell them from the actual stars. I propose two theories regarding them. 1. They could duplicate inorganic life as well as organic life, which would explain how they survived re-entry. 2. The more plausible, being they hitched a ride on a large meteor which slowly disintegrated and didn't hop out until it was close enough to earth to fall and blend in with the rain.
But that's just explaining the movie. How does this have anything to do with Covid?
Simple. First and Foremost, I would like for you to look up the name Robert Bakker. He's a famous paleontologist and his theory was that after the Asteroid destroyed most of the dinosaurs, the rest got finished off by a multitude of diseases caused by the change in environment. However I offer an extension to this theory. Since the asteroid was big enough to land on earth to wipe it out, what if there were diseases within it too. Ones that cross-bred with the native diseases on what used to be Pangaea? There have been many articles recently saying that the asteroid is still affecting Earth to this day. One of which being millions of microorganisms, growing and evolving right underneath our crust. So I theorize in that case, maybe one of them simply got out and intermingled with the Corona virus as a whole, be it by itself or through the disease carrying animals like Bats.
However so far, with every disease we've been hit over the millennia, as well as our efforts to adapt, immunize and fight them off over the course of the same era, we've managed to make it through Ok, regardless of the casualties. This pandemic being no exception even if it's taking longer. However, part of why it's taking so long is that people regardless of what they theorize have no fucking clue where it came from.
I realized that maybe, in small doses compared to the Dinosaur Asteroid, that these meteors, even if they don't hit the Earth, would probably accumulate over time into one big thing. And I think I know where it came from. Like I said. I think. As in I'm not 100% certain, but I do believe it's possible. Much like I've mentioned before I think like the Asteroid, this disease among many others in space, may have hitched a ride on many meteors big and small and either landed directly on earth or landed close enough to spread to it.
The most common way to witness a meteor or a group of meteors falling to earth is through Meteor Showers. Meteor Showers have often been considered harmless physically because the meteors burn up in re-entry before they hit the earth. That is unless they are big enough to survive the fall. Even then they contain radioactive material in them, which while seemingly harmless to us, could make a brilliant hotbed for things smaller than us. So I offer two theories regarding this one.
- The first being that during a meteor shower one of the bigger ones hit the Earth and was either left unchecked or someone took it home with them. However I debunk this one a little, because you'd need to know if it landed somewhere in Wuhan for that one to even be plausible. That being said, best bet would be to check anywhere in the area and see if there are new meteors displayed in their museums.
- The second, being that even the one's that disintegrated were closer to earth long enough for this particular organism to fall just about anywhere on Earth. Meaning even if the Meteor is destroyed, there are still odds the virus may have made it down. Either staying airborne or landing in the closest living population to intermingle with the local bacteria. This one I find more believable.
That being said, on this site: https://www.imo.net/resources/calendar/, I was looking into the previous calenders that predict and log when the next meteor shower would hit. One specifically popped into mind. It was known as the Leonid Meteor Shower. An event that happens once a year in November. Said shower let's 10 - 15 meteors per hour loose in our atmosphere. So I looked up the dates to see if it coincided with the first outbreak. This particular shower was predicted to happen on 15th in 2019 and was expected to peak on the 16th - 17th of that same month and year. that is over 48 hours of meteors falling. At that rate it'd be 480 - 720 meteors falling to the sky, disintegrating into dust and smoke if they got close enough. Which in turn spreads out in the atmosphere and through the local weather falls down to the Earth. And that's just the peak days. I do not want to know how many there actually was during the actual period of it.
What does this have to do with covid? That period of time was 2 - 3 days before November 19, 2019. The first official outbreak in Wuhan. Then I looked into the ones in 2020, there was a different type of meteor shower known as ε-Perseids. Which happen every September once per year. 5 Meteors per hour with it lasting from September 5 to September 21. That's 5 Meteors per hour for 16 days. 384 hours. 1920 Meteors fall during that time. September 2020 was when the first variants were estimated to start from. Then I looked into 2021, the Leonids strike again, this time the period was between november 6 - 30 with it's peak on the 17th once again. 24 days of 10 meteors. That's 576 hour, giving it a total of 5760 Meteors. So if 2019's period is the same, that makes that times 2 for both. It also happens to be around the time the Omicron Variant was discovered and reported. Kind of odd that our most recent variant 2 months ago, was discovered about 1 year and 5 days after the first outbreak occurred, isn't it?
Now I'm not saying this is right. For all I know, it could be a massive coincidence at best or complete and total bullshit at worst. I really hope to God it's the latter, because if it's not then we got bigger things to worry about.
Meteors have often been associated with many end of the world scenarios, mostly associated with warnings of it. Such as Revelation's prediction that the Stars will fall to the Earth, signifying judgment day. What if instead of a warning, it's what may be the cause, but not in the way we think? But rather than a natural cause, what if these ones are deliberately aimed at us?
By all intents and purposes if Meteors were enough to hurt us in this way, then we'd all be at risk every time there's a meteor shower and there have been shitloads between the dates I've mentioned. So naturally we'd be fucked every time. However aside from them accumulating as I mentioned here's what I believe is happening. Probably the craziest thing anyone has ever thought of.
Imagine you're a race of aliens and for some reason or another you're pissed off at Earth. Whether it's because we're destructive, are a potential threat, or the humans just happen to be in the way of a new place you want to live in. Now a full scale invasion would seem the logical way to go. An armada of ships, but even if your power is capable enough to wipe the humans off the face of the Earth, you don't want to risk harming the planet. Nor a potential revolution. So you come up with a plan. A way to kill everyone, but without damaging any natural resources, assuming you don't have the tech to fix what they broke. So you take advantage of an event that happens once a year and you smuggle the virus onto earth using the meteors as cover. Thinking it'd be a piece of cake. However you find to your shock that the humans found a way to fight it back. Through Vaccines and other things. So you send a stronger virus. They fight back again. You send another one. They fight back once more. The baffling part is, they don't even know they're fighting you to begin with. Yet they keep winning.
I think the next major variant will come in the next meteor shower, possibly on September or November this year, but odds are it will happen during any other date as well. I really hope to God I'm wrong.
Now this isn't set in stone, I could be very, very wrong, however if I'm right, this stopped being a pandemic and started becoming a war of the worlds.
