In Episode 16, Colin Cheney is missing. He was last seen venturing to Puerto Rico in search of a major discovery at the Arecibo Observatory. Meanwhile, fearing his reoccurring Martian Aphasia might lead to his arrest, Donald Quist flees the United States and returns to Bangkok. From Thailand, Donald reflects on America's declaration of war with Mars and the executive order to detain any perceived followers of former Mars colonist, Captain Raymond Shepard. Donald discusses the growing sense of anxiety across the globe as uncertainty about alien invaders continues to aid the rise of demagogues. Sorting through abandoned audio from his last visit with Colin, Donald shares a recording of the pair riding through Boston, Massachusetts, on their way to meet a new sponsor for the podcast. Reminiscing on their work together, Donald ponders Colin's vanishing and if the podcast might be of greater significance than either of them could have imagined.

Dr. Kenneth Nielson -- La Salla Transmission, 16 Feb 2016
Our friend Dr. Kenneth Nielson, an acoustic technician with the Trodza Institute at University of Copenhagen, provided us with this new transmission. It is believed to be coming from the unidentified objects--the "whales," as some continue to call them--en route to Earth.
Dr. Nielson wrote this in his email to us: "This is the transmission that was picked up by the La Silla observatory in the Atacama Desert, Chile. Dr. G.L. Ghatan, director of the observatory, detected this signal on 16 February 2016 at 3:07:15AM while tracking the objects approaching Earth. Disobeying orders of the Chilean government officer at La Silla, Dr. Ghatan decided to release this newest transmission. According to Dr. Ghatan, the transmission cycles and repeats every 11 minutes 8 seconds. My own analysis suggests that it is non-terrestrial in origin, and similar to the original transmission picked up in March 2015, but not publicly disclosed until Dr. Weerasethakul gave it to Wikileaks in November 2015. "
Dr. Nielson wrote later to say that Dr. Ghatan has since been arrested by the Chilean military.
