Check out this huge shiny blue thing, maybe 200 miles west of the square thing.

The thing must be 5 miles wide and 10 miles long.  At least it has a road going by it.

Solar power station? I thought about why it might be blue, and realized maybe it's the sky being reflected off of it. There are parts of it that look black.

They're canals, which prove my theory that Earth was at one time inhabited by intelligent life.

Balls.  Earth cannot support intelligent life.  The best it can manage is self-destructive simians.  You have a defect in your lenses.

You can't get out backward.  You have to go forward to go back.. better press on! - Willie Wonka, PBUH

Life can be seen as a game with no reset button, no extra lives, and if the power goes out there is no restarting.  If that's all you see life as you are not long for this world, and never will get it.
