Bad news for the NASA Administrator - the Space Shuttle has blown up again. But this time the cause is not foam-fretted tiles, it&#39;s alien hitch-hikers. That&#39;s right: aggressive extraterrestrials have bummed a rocket ride to Earth to take over our planet. It&#39;s a familiar theme, indeed, but there&#39;s a silver lining to this interstellar cloud: the invaders are doing it for your own good.
