Flash Fiction – 100 Word Drabble: We Are Not Alone

Another drabble, I really enjoyed writing breathe .I thought I would give it another go. This time I wanted to try something new with the format. I introduce to you:

We are not alone

The data received from the interstellar telescope is clear. We are not alone. We have found extraterrestrial life in our universe.

There is only one problem... Even if we could travel the vast depths of space and make contact, by the time we arrived... it would be extinct.

The planet orbits a single star, it is the third planet of Eight. We have called the planet E3-RTH. We will monitor its demise and learn from it what we can. The science must continue, our survival depends on it.
