Klingon operas and messages beamed into space
Some people have way too much time on their hands.
So sci-fi enthusiast Floris Schonfeld has composed the world's first opera in Klingon, the (fake) language from the (pretend) alien race in the (fictional) TV show - Star Trek
To promote his show, Floris and his friends have decided to beam a message to where they believe the home planet of the (fictional) Klingon race is located, and invited a delegation of Klingon A-listers to attend the opening night, in an attempt to stage some sort of PR coup for the show.
Some people enjoy keeping the lines between reality and fiction slightly blurred, and with this bunch I'm not quite convinced that some of these loons weren't actually expecting an response from our (pretend) alien friends.
