A political scientists on twitter posts "The reason the UUM can do what it does. Seems to be three factors. First is diversity. They are immensely diverse, filled with millions of cultures that intermingle, mix, and improve ideas, and science. This also results in eccentricity, and odd personalities we have seen in our three integration team members. Second is strength. The universe seems to have diversity in strength so strong, that while yes, its rare, they will find powerful beings. To combat that, they use there diversity as a weapon, increasing there armies, and using technology they keep to themselves to always be beyond everyone. If they fail in this, they die, we all die. Lastly... is there education system, and government. This is what keeps them moral. They teach everyone morals, force them to know morals, and force them to be dealt with morally via law, even if they are powerful. This is why the UUM can do what it does."

It's February 21, 2027. The UUM twitter account posted a message. "You are in stage 2... due to our little release of that goverment document. Yes, we bent the rules a little. A rule is only as good as where it says to bend it.

Anyway, our first interventions will begin a week after the UUM's second meeting with your United Nations, on August 18th, 2027. Also... 'Worlds of a Feather', have managed to get a UUM official to agree to visit on August 18th, 2027!! He has a role known as an 'admin'. He... is very, very high up there. Honestly though, given his personality it's not surprising he agreed. He is... rather eccentric among the 12 admins in the entire UUM, and the most... personable. Admins are more like heads of our sectors of government, and aspects of the UUM, not belonging to any one civilization, and also not a part of the council of civilizations, just a part of checks, and balances. His position is officially called 'Admin of Biology'. Manging the laws, regulations, sectors/subsectors, and even some military actions regarding biology. Honestly, the UUM breeds responsible, competent, eccentricity, and diversity in all its citizens. Also... uh... the reason he is visiting is less political then you think... he is... very, very eccentric.

Also we will be giving access to UUM broadcasting equipment, for the meeting to some select media corporations. As to allow anyone in the world to watch live, even with no internet, as it can stream to our global website. Just a device. No, you can not take them apart, but good luck trying. I will email, and visit those selected on August 1st, 2027, to explain, and give the technology. Yes, you get to keep it, but they will be one of a kind for... like a while, until you integrate. So don't forget where you put the one of a kind technology. The UUM does enjoy its PR, and showmanship." For many... this began to confirm the notion... that everyone in the UUM had absurd personalities. The fact that there are only 12! Admins in the entire UUM! Makes many see it the same as the president of the United States visiting some offshore, uncontacted island.

The fact that "Worlds of a Feather," a UUM non-profit organization, had managed to convince an Admin—one of only twelve in the entire UUM—to visit Earth set off a wave of admiration, speculation, and intrigue across the globe. For a civilization as vast and complex as the UUM, where even their integration teams seemed monumental to humanity, the idea that a single organization, even a respected one, could bring one of these elusive figures to Earth was both awe-inspiring and deeply puzzling to many.

On social media, the announcement was met with a flurry of reactions, ranging from disbelief to wild enthusiasm. A popular tweet read, "How the hell did some cosmic NGO convince one of the UUM's top twelve to visit us? What's next, they're going to bring a god to a PTA meeting?" Another joked, "Earth's been ghosting the galaxy for eons, but leave it to a non-profit to slide into the DMs of cosmic leadership and make them show up." Memes proliferated, with one featuring a tiny cartoon Earth holding up a massive megaphone labeled "Worlds of a Feather" and yelling at a giant alien figure in a lab coat, "Yo Admin, come fix this!

Wolf Blitzer introduced the topic with a solemn tone, the usual breaking news banner flashing across the bottom of the screen. "The UUM has announced it will provide advanced broadcasting technology to certain media outlets. What does this mean for humanity's understanding of interstellar communication, and why are they choosing this moment to introduce such technology?"

The panel consisted of a tech entrepreneur, a media ethics professor, and a retired government official. The entrepreneur, wide-eyed and visibly excited, speculated, "This technology could redefine how we communicate. Think about it—no reliance on traditional internet infrastructure, potentially no latency across vast distances. It's a game-changer not just for broadcasting but for every form of communication."

The retired official, more skeptical, chimed in, "Let's not forget, the UUM is controlling who gets access to this. They've been very clear that the technology is one-of-a-kind and will remain so until integration. This isn't open sharing—it's selective, calculated. They're leveraging this to shape public perception, no doubt about it."

An ethics professor added, "It raises an important question: why media outlets? If this technology can broadcast to any device without the internet, why not provide it to educational institutions or public infrastructure first? There's a clear PR strategy here, but the implications for power dynamics in the media are enormous. Imagine the sway this could give to the outlets selected. It seems we must wait for August 1st to receive this technology. I do think it's quite likely they are giving us this, so we can broadcast the meeting easier, and more widely."

Then... something major occurred. On February 25, 2027, just days after their announcement, as the world continued to talk. Reports came in... North Korea... has launched nukes, at the UUM space station. As recordings flood social media from nasa, of the nukes hitting... and a flash of bright light emitting... no damage, as the color shifts from orange to purple, and nothing, as waves of purple fog fluctuate... on the surface of the space station. The world's political situation goes crazy. Kim Jong-un announced something along the lines of "The UUM is a threat to us all! Aliens that will destroy us!", filled with stupid propaganda, and more. Before... reports came in, he was not even in North Korea, and was hiding in some bunker somewhere. There was silence from the UUM... except for reports from those using the contact system on their site, politicians, and world leaders, showing the message "The UUM is currently busy. We know about the nukes. Honestly idiotic." It... was an automated message. No response yet from the UUM, and with the UN meeting so close, and their announcement of the Admin coming... Many worry greatly. 'Did... did humanity just sign its death warrant?' one famous post read. They also learned that most of North Korea... still had no idea the UUM existed. As once the UUM website came to be accessible to all, North Korea literally removed all devices with a web browser from their country.

In terms of scientific reaction. A prominent scientist said "This... is the most idiotic example of why democracy... and progressive thinking will save us. Not an ideological dumbass. Regarding the defense technology at display... its... likely ender energy, as shown before. But being controlled automatically. The nukes detonated, their explosions were then contained... by ender energy, as the nukes raw power... was just perfectly converted into controllable ender energy. Their defense system means... anything can be defended, as long as it's not faster than the ender energy can absorb." After a week... of nothing. The UUM announced on twitter. "The attack on us by North Korea has been noted. It will be discussed in the meeting coming up. Beyond this, that is all, there will be consequences to the deserving parties." Many gulped in nervousness, official organizations putting sanctions on trade with North Korea as a sign of protest. Various political maneuverings to not be connected to North Korea.

The UUM official communications continued once more. But did not respond to anything to do with the attack. Well... beyond a few vague statements from Talax. One of his few responses to a tweet by a user "North Korea is truly idiotic! They are threatening us all!" Talax responded with the official UUM Twitter "Correction: They are threatening... themselves. We got interventions planned, don't worry about it. Honestly, it's funny to think they tried to throw nukes at us, when WE STATED in our own Q&A. Only lone, or isolated UUM vessels, with non-warriors could ever be threatened, even a bit, by a nuke. AN integration team is anything but isolated, and defenseless. Our integration team has the capabilities to defend galactic threats for a time. I feel bad for their populations personally, dragged into this against their will, when they struggle for food. It's rather... sad. Anyway, we are not changing any of our timeline, interventions will begin at the time we planned."

Governments around the world, meanwhile, tried to salvage their own images. They rushed to issue statements condemning the launch, or clarifying their non-involvement. Secret intelligence reports circulated, stating that Kim's regime was now "the single greatest liability in humanity's cosmic introduction." Diplomatic back channels to Talax and Evtalo were jammed with messages, trying to emphasize that Earth, as a whole, did not support North Korea's action. But the UUM's response was still basically, "We're busy. We know. We'll deal with it in August." That left half a year of global tension, a countdown for what might happen at that fateful UN meeting.

Amid all this, the daily discourse about the upcoming Admin of Biology's visit took a paranoid turn. People began to guess he might use North Korea as his personal demonstration of cosmic reordering. Some conjured dystopian visions of a flamboyant alien official stepping onto the peninsula, rewriting genetics, dismantling bombs, re-educating the population on a whim. The more optimistic saw a chance for the UUM to show Earth how advanced moral governance handled a rogue nuclear regime without harming innocent civilians. Nobody had a clue which scenario was more likely.

In short, it was chaos—fueled by the knowledge that nuclear weapons had been used, yet proven worthless against an impenetrable cosmic force. For the average person on the street, life went on as usual, but under a blanket of tension. People kept asking each other: "So, are we in trouble? Is the UUM about to punish all of us? Or maybe they'll remove Kim and fix that mess?" Almost nobody thought the rest of Earth should suffer for one nation's extreme decision, but the unpredictability of the UUM's moral codes lingered in everyone's mind. They'd said repeatedly that they'd never allow a civilization to become a threat to the cosmos, so how would they respond to a smaller, but still brazen attempt like this?

August 1st, 2027. The world was aggressively checking their news, waiting for the day the UUM delivered its 'broadcasting equipment'. The UUM website, and twitter announced, as usual "This is the list of news stations that will receive equipment, and the time of delivery. Expect an hour or two from me to explain it. Gather key members, and technical people for me to teach, and talk too in one location nearby a TV or active screen. Don't even think about overcrowding it, and bringing too many. Too many cooks spoil the pot." The list had 33 entries of news crews, across countries. At least 7-8 small news stations.

As clips circulated online... of him arriving in bursts of blue plasma from TV screens, that rapidly formed into a silver fox, with blue glowing eyes. Along with a 1mx1mx1m silver metallic box. As he went... right into technical details, making sure they did as he asked. The Owner of CNN... was observed unsure of whether to share the fox's paw, or just nod silently. As the fox explained the technology, and the box to the crews. In the box... was a USB drive-like device, except with a futuristic aesthetic. Along with 20 small... orbs, the size of a walnut. He pulled one out, and then used one of their computers, with the USB, and showed how... the small orb silver walnut, extended wings... like the golden snitch from harry potter, and silently hovered with no sound. He showed... how it recorded 10k frames per second, was a 360 degree camera, and that the data itself was stored inside the silver drive. Then he showed a larger orb, that took up most of the space in the box. Explaining how "This is for long range shots." He activated it... it hovered. Then... flew carefully out a window... and with a sonic boom... in seconds they had a view of earth from space.

He later showed how the silver drive had a program built in for video editing, controlling several recording orbs, and etc. He also... said very sternly "Everything you record is monitored by the UUM. If you dare... idk... break privacy with them. Or spy on other countries with the long range rec-orb... we will stop you, and take it back." He also explains how the drive is literally a computer stronger than our supercomputers. Purely designed to interface with their technology, and handle the crazy file sizes of their recordings. Before converting them to normal videos for their use. Along with that, he shows off an Ai action recorder. He does say "Oh... this is not a digital being, just lesser AI."

Over the next few days, various media studios show off the technology. Showing how easy it becomes to just record large areas, or individual actions, and even slow down the recordings to such a point... they can edit a raw recording to show a bullet moving. According to teams however "The programs to manipulate the rec-orbs are... advanced, very advanced. Like having to relearn blender. They can move perfectly, follow recorded movements, be manually controlled, or follow automatic, pre-programed, or even AI generated paths. It's... a bit overwhelming, but we are managing."
