Unearthly Thirsty

An astronomer claims to have spotted a large whale like creature in the asteroid belt. The photographs from his telescope have yet to be confirmed. The astronomer estimates the creatures size to be as large as a small moon. Some scientists have already theorized that perhaps it is this creature that consumed the atmosphere and water on Mars. If this theory is correct the earth could be in great danger. Surely, there would be an ecosystem within such a large creature, but nobody can say whether such an environment would be suitable for humans should they be consumed along with the Earth’s resources.
