They Came From The Moon

What if alien life is closer than we think?

Not in distant galaxies or on planets still unknown to the human race... What if it had been shining in our eyes every night for the last 4.5 billion years?

bantara

They call themselves Bantarans because Bantara is the native name for the Moon. Similar to humans, but very different. Bantarans are known to not have one heart like humans, not even two hearts like the Doctor, but up to three perfectly functioning hearts within their bodies. But where are they? And why have we never seen them? There's a problem... The Bantara mother carries the Bantara baby inside her for about 4,000 years... That's how long it takes for those three hearts to be perfectly synchronized. But its lifespan reaches more than 100,000 years. Why? There are absolutely no known bacteria or viruses on the Moon, leaving them with the perfect chance to evolve very quickly...

1969, human year

Until 1969 - human year. That's when we humans made our great achievement and landed on the surface of the Moon. We gloated for a while and then just walked away leaving behind a neovirus that is undetectable by human technology. That was the end of life as the Bantarans knew it.

Afraid, desperate and almost without hope, the Bantarans decided to flee for their lives... And their target was Earth... They didn't hate, they didn't want revenge, they simply wanted humans to help them. But they were, as we humans would say, naive.

The Landing

As soon as they landed and made contact, we started protesting against helping the aliens as they could be our enemies. Typically. Human scientists were forced to lock the Bantarans inside laboratories and conduct experiments, but there was one person who restored faith in humanity. The Doctor. Oliver Pendaka refused to commit genocide and freed the Bantarans, allowing them to flee further into the lab.

There may still be hope for the Bantarans of the Moon. Save the run for our night light!
