Communism means the abolition of money, the market, and the state.
Market socialists/mutualists/whatever are not communist. They have different explanations for how they intend to dodge the flaws of markets.
Most anarchists will be communist in their economic views.
Unironically think they would be proud. I clawed my way out of the depression pit and am working on the plans I had since I was younger.
IRL Teddy Roosevelt was rather an imperialist sadly. Started the whole “world police” bullshit.

Yeah it was a thermal blanket from the mission that took the photo
Solar Sails, Generational and Cryogenic Ships: We’d be able to see the craft slowly approaching us. Covering it up would be increasingly impossible as it approaches us because as the comrade from before said, telescopes are readily available technology. Even if there was a coverup of an international scale that had the support of every single institution, it would require dealing with thousands of amateur astronomers and utterly subverting scientific peer-review.
Wow: The Signal has never been repeated. It could genuinely be aliens who sent it by accident. Other more sensitive radio telescopes didn’t detect it though. The discoverer believes that while it isn’t impossible that the signal is extraterrestrial in origin it could also be some nonsense done on Earth. The signal band is protected but it could be interference from a close-by frequency or someone with a powerful transmitter making the funniest pirate radio broadcast ever.
Asteroid: If they were trying to communicate with their folks back home, there’s a good chance we’d pick it up. Furthermore, maintaining a livable space station on an asteroid will generate waste heat and such. Our astronomers would probably notice such an anomaly.
Artemis II happened recently, despite all the cuts :)
I was very antagonistic because I grew up an atheist in a conservative ultracatholic hell. Now I live in a chill place that used to also be conservative ultracatholic hell. I got to meet religious people that didn’t sincerely believe that I deserve to be tortured forever for not believing in what they do, who aren’t bigots, who believe in abortions, who hate rapist priests. When people aren’t mad at you all the time, it’s so much more peaceful to reciprocate.
It’s easy to fall into antitheism when the only religious people around you are structurally supporting evil, it’s hard when you see that people can actually have a positive relationship with their religion and community, even if they are incorrect about some metaphysical truth.
