The planet of water drops

The planet of water drops

The "water drop alien" (or robot) is mentioned in one book, and the thing is that this kind of organism is not so imaginational as we might want to believe. One version of those things is the structure, which seems a little bit like sea-urchin. This structure would have long cilium, which keeps the water above it, and the water makes the protective core for the body of the organism.

Or actually, it might seem like the fluff and the kinetic particle would be inside the water drop. If we are thinking about the alien, what wants to move the fetus in the stomach of some other organism, it can simply create this kind of semen. The mission of the water drop is to deny the operations of the detectors, what mission is to warn the living organisms about the bio danger. And that kinetic semen might be transparent.

Here we must realize that those things might be systems, what mission is to transfer the nerve cells to the body of the other species. So if they are artificial, they might be creatures, that are created by using highly advanced bio- and robotics technology, and they might be very deadly systems. The thing is that those machines could make the layer between the brain core and the inner brains, and that allows taking the body to the control. Or they just can release the morula to the stomach, of the creature, what eats them. So this kind of thing is really dangerous, and that would give breaks for the plans of the journeys to the other solar systems.

Do you know, why I'm talking about structure? The thing is that when we are talking about exobiological systems, we might also mean things like automatized factories, what are left on the planet when living organisms have been gone somewhere. In this case, the hypothetical aliens would simply fill the water storages and make repairments in the solar system before they would continue their journey.

So if we are thinking about the case that some alien civilization could make the base to some water planet that thing means that some kind of systems like "Von Neumann" factories might be below the surface, and if rescue crew doesn't know about them, they can leave those robot factories below the surface. In this case, the robot factories would continue their mission.  Or the aliens would just forget to cut the power when they are disbanding their systems to some planet.

But this kind of system is also interested in the military because that kind of thing allows delivering poisonous material like nerve gas to some bases. In those cases, this kind of hairy ball robots would transfer the nerve agent to the military base, and sensors would not be alarmed, because those systems would be covered by water. And when the water drop is drying those robots would release the poisonous agent in air.
