During the first attempt at contact with extraterrestrial life, scientists sent a spacecraft containing various gifts to space. Among them was a dog biscuit, intended as a symbol of Earth’s connection to animals. However, the aliens misinterpreted the gesture and viewed it as an insult. They believed humans considered them to be on the same level as animals. The failed communication resulted in hostility and missed opportunity for peaceful interaction. The incident served as a cautionary tale for future attempts at contact with unknown beings.
