Two Google engineers are troubleshooting a server issue.
“I can’t believe what I see in the server logs!”
“What do you see?”
“There is a search query that has arrived from a distant galaxy.”
There is a brief pause.
“What is the search query?”
“Other intelligent life in the universe.”
This story is inspired by my idea for a writing prompt in reddit.
