Wow, That’s Big!: The Air Whale
.
Nobody on Earth 21-M knows where the extraterrestrial lifeform dubbed “The Air Whale” came from, but pretty much everyone on the planet has seen him more than once.
The Air Whale is a nearly transparent creature roughly shaped like a Blue Whale. It measures just over 3 miles long and a half a mile wide for most of its length. From belly to back, it is about 1,000 feet thick.
When it appeared in Earths atmosphere in 1950, it caused a worldwide panic. Most governments were ready to try shooting it down, but cooler heads prevailed when it did nothing aggressive. Sadly, the North Korean Air Force did attack it with 5 jet fighters. Just before they got into firing range, the creature emitted a single focused sonic pulse and blew the planes up. Since that day, nobody has made an aggressive move against the Air Whale.
The Air Whale is known to consume pollutants in the atmosphere, and often “dives” cities like Los Angeles, New York and Beijing, swallowing up tons of smog with each dive. Later, the creature excretes boxcar sized pellets of solid waste, mostly carbon.
