Is the mood hostile? Or one of confident greeting? Is that a smile, or an anticipatory grab for an imminent mammalian morsel? It's impossible to decipher; perhaps time will tell.
News across the wire today stated that astronomers' instruments have now surveyed enough of the sky to determine that we share a place in the heavenly vault with far more planets than stars. This makes sense: one Sun to nine planets in our Solar System [don't bother correcting me: Pluto gets my vote until my dying day!]. The accumulation of visual evidence now reveals many other systems with similar spherical distribution ratios as found in our interstellar neighborhood.
With so many unknown worlds out there, who could say what form and appearance other entities have taken on? I daresay it won't be any easier to assess their mood and intent than it is regarding the subject of this submission.
