David had interpreted the purpose of the alien signal from a wholly new perspective, and although most of it was speculative, it already fit together quite perfectly.

But this conjecture was too terrifying for anyone to dare believe it.

From a human perspective, mastering nuclear bombs signifies a breakthrough in micro-science, which in the universe should at least represent a certain "threshold."

And what aliens might do to humans who had already crossed this threshold... was simply unimaginable.
