Some Random people found it, This device had a crank handle with dials on it, and once the dials hit the correct sequence it was supposed to open and show treasures. Well it did and that treasure was a beaconing device that was super nuclear. Super nova style. It took weeks for the Earth to see the effects of this. That treasure released a slow propigating radiation that encompassed the solar system, and slowly killed people off by exposing them to "Level 0 radiation". This took awhile until the Alien robots came, and the population was slowly dying out, so who was left was forced to assimilate or die in a massive super nova sized blast. That alien race that was going to "offer us salvation" of sorts, by taking our consiousness and putting it into a system, and we had to do work in that system to pay our rent basically, for all eternity. My entire extended family and I said hell nah to that, along with many other people on the planet. When the Aliens left, they triggered the blast and we were instantly wooshed back into life just weeks before this country wide hunt for the crystal device Only a very select few people saw that we were re-living the events. Much like a hard reset from a previous save point. We tried to stop the events from happening again, and the dream repeated itself again except for us being complaciant we tried to stop the finding and usage of the device. We failed again, and all hung out watching the TV waiting for the entire solar system to be imploded, once again. One phrase from us remembering that is standing out is "Hey, remember this from last time?" The ending of the dream is a TV set showing a satelite picture of the outer solar system getting destroyed and working its way inwards. Then just before Mars is torn apart, we get a big message on the screen that flashed "Do your Taxes" the tv then fuzzes out like the transmitter stopped working. And then the dream ends due to my alarm going off.
