Of course you can’t, they have a track record of having perfect knowledge animal, vegetable, and mineral.

Truly perfect knowledge. (Every time the subject of UFOs and the military comes up, I always think of the time an airplane was ‘chased’ by a UFO that turned out to be the Moon. Well, I say “the” time, but I’m pretty sure it happened more than once - it’s just that one time, the air force started getting pretty hysterical about it until they realized.)

Arecibo was such an iconic telescope; I hope it can be rebuilt soon.
