i think what the best part about this short is that this short is humanity's first FTL and first contact and from the alien point of view, they were simply responding to a distress call and returning the "alien" back to his home planet. Nothing more. nothing less. Just being decent neighbors.

It felt painful to watch the astronaut looking at his family's picture thinking he was about to die far from home and loved ones. Then comes the relief the aliens were actually there to help him return home. Unknown actors,and maybe small budget and I'm no film expert but this felt like a blockbuster.well done.

That's only if he is physically there. That little holographic shutter in his face makes me wonder if that's actually him, or a replication of the exact way the molecules formed his physical form in OUR reality. Have a feeling he disintegrated somehow by the things he made contact with. Did they just break him down, then light travel his particles back down to his home? Plus, if we could travel near (not at the SOL) the speed of light and back, wouldn't time have passed very differently from his location to earths? Like, in the edges of the gargantuan black hole's event horizon, time and space are being warped so drastically that every hour that passes there equals 7 years back on earth. I'd imagine light travel affects in someway space and time in very strange ways. Did you know that even astronauts in real life that have gone to the moon and back, they've technically altered their own age in comparison to how time passes here inside of our earths gravity. A certain one, can't recall his name but famous. After he came back, he was actually a 6th of a year younger than he was when he went into outer space. So technically traveling at the speed of light is time travel.

@@silberfuchsag4746 a lot of people don't understand quantum entaglement.. first rule of the universe is that nothing can travel faster than light, not even information. A way to circumvent this and do FTL travel is to bend the space around an object to shorten the distance without going faster than light, which is what they've done here. since information cannot travel faster than light, real time communication that is faster than light is literally impossible, unless they found a way to bend the space around the information while being sent which is yet another impossibility in itself.
