Taxation/fundraising idea:
Charge all social media users a nominal fee for every comment they make that includes speculations about aliens and critters, which inevitably follow posts like these. 90% of proceeds go to JPL for mission operations budgets.
That said, I look forward to the "odd comments" that always attend these "odd rocks".

Sounds like a good plan to me :)
That's a fucking plastic bag...
