    It's clearly seen by everyone the globe, the news talk about it 24/7, etc etc etc. Mass hysteria, etc.

    Would the global powers mount a fast offensive to secure the site ahead of the others? I mean I can imagine Russia rushing everything its got to secure it ahead of NATO, and NATO doing the same. Would there be a conflict over it considering the stakes are pretty high?

    Would Russia and China not do anything like that but demand equal rights to investigate the crash? Would they be accepted?
    Transylvania? Oh, I'm sorry, Transylvania is part of Romania, and now, so are the aliens and their technology. By the time your planes get here (30 min) we'll have scrapped the whole ship and took all the important tech. If it has metal, the rate of assimilating the tech would skyrocket.
    Trust me, we have gypsies, they move fast when money is involved... if you know what I mean.

    The UN got a 'space ambassador', time to let him goto work and carve up the cake
    But soon after Mr Xi secured a third term, Apple released a new version of the feature in China, limiting its scope. Now Chinese users of iPhones and other Apple devices are restricted to a 10-minute window when receiving files from people who are not listed as a contact. After 10 minutes, users can only receive files from contacts.
    Apple did not explain why the update was first introduced in China, but over the years, the tech giant has been criticised for appeasing Beijing.

    Imagine the looks on their faces when they find nothing inside and it turns out to be a giant wireframe covered in metal sheets.

    Guys, regardless of where the spaceship lands, you keep forgetting that the spaceship has aliens on it. Before anyone claims anything, we would have to deal with them folks first. I don't think that, even if the ship is damaged, we could get close to it just like that. Let alone scavenge it.

    Ever heard of laser guns? They'll probably shoot you with it if you dared to show up with tanks in a hostile manner.

    I believe a District 9 scenario is more likely than WW3

    Once that dust settled I'm sure the countries that were left would kill enough of eachother off until 1 country was left standing.
    Yeah....no. Alien life wouldn't prove or disprove the existence of God.

    If it's a large ship but it is severely damaged then it probably only has 1 sectopod and my sniper is specced for double tap, so I'd go for it.
