So, he was back to his first idea, the one he had tried to ignore, deeming it too ridiculous. But as James continued examining it, that option quickly became impossible.
Completely intact
The treetops surrounding the object were completely intact. Not a single broken branch. Nothing had fallen around the object, which meant it hadn’t crashed from space.
Moreover, there was no visible damage to the ground. Not even a hole or a broken stone. Wouldn’t an object from space leave a big impact? The answer must lie elsewhere.
Many cables
James bent down and tried to look under the object. It seemed to be connected to the ground or at least to something underground. With his nose in the dust, the hiker managed to see what was there.
