Alien Lab Rats by Steve Payne

Author says: what if humans were kidnapping and experimenting on extraterrestrial life-forms? Please note that the opinions expressed in this post do not necessarily reflect the views of the author(s).

On March 13th 2011,

aware that no sane TV director would permit live coverage, pro-life activists upload home-made footage of the alien lab rats onto Youtube.

Alien Lab RatsFor several decades conspiracy theorists had sought to convince Americans that extraterrestrial life forms had been abducting humans for experimentation. And during the nineties conjecture had arisen that unexplained cattle mutilation suggested some form of deal had been brokered. But instead what emerged was a huge cover-up by the US Government because humans had been experimenting on aliens!

Inevitably a group of activists launched a rescue mission on Area 51. And before the authorities could smuggle the extraterrestrials out of the facility the group succeeded in liberating one of the "alien lab rats".

The impact of the Youtube broadcast was immediate and catastrophic. Through signals and projections that the Area 51 specialists had been investigating under controlled conditions, the alien induced a mindset change in humanity that exacerbated existing contemporary differences. Beset by division, mankind had unwittingly opened the door to alien colonisation.

Author says many thanks to Jeff Provine, David Atwell and Stan Brin for their contributions to the development of this story. To view guest historian's comments on this post please visit the Today in Alternate History web site.

Imagine what would be, if history had occurred a bit differently. Who says it didn't, somewhere? These fictional news items explore that possibility. Possibilities such as America becoming a Marxist superpower, aliens influencing human history in the 18th century and Teddy Roosevelt winning his 3rd term as president abound in this interesting fictional blog.
