Space Probe Force

Short Film, Original, Tom Weber

We are aliens!

United we stand!

We never asked the humans to come here!
Yet still they came, time and time again!
These humans call themselves "Space Probe Force" - a crew intruding our planets with baffling confidence as backdrops for their objectives. Through our visual logs and field reports, you will observe their reckless diplomacy, questionable
survival instincts, bottomless greed and a remarkable ability to create problems where none existed.
The data is clear: they should not be here.

Creator's note:

Space Probe Force is what happens when humans conquer the universe — and the universe
isn't impressed. It's weird, it's sassy and it's unapologetically chaotic.

This is a world that invites you to explore, laugh, and ponder the absurdity of existence and why anyone thought sending these humans into space was a good idea.

The aliens certainly agree that it wasn't.
