DEEP SPACE MESSAGE: Chalbeth Reynolds, graduate student in Space Studies at UND, has provided this Deep Space Message: Here is a short list of tips for any beings who want to visit Earth: - Cows are much more fun to probe than humans are. - We cannot decipher crop circle messages or strange light effects in the sky.
