Helping Lost Extraterrestrials Since 1948

LASP was established in 1948 as a direct response to the unfortunate navigational mishap near Roswell, New Mexico, the year prior. Since then, we have worked tirelessly to provide stranded extraterrestrials with critical services such as spacecraft repair, cross-galactic navigation recalibration, universal translation assistance, and human culture training.

With a proven track record of thousands of successful rescues, cover-ups, and interstellar reunifications, LASP remains the most trusted name in Lost Alien Support.

Here are some key moments in our long and storied history:

1947
Roswell Incident

While official reports claim it was a weather balloon mishap, a few visionary scientists saw it differently: Earth’s first opportunity for extraterrestrial roadside assistance.

1947
1950s
Dawn of the Space Age

LASP scientists, with the help of extraterrestrial engineers, worked tirelessly to integrate alien propulsion technology into early rocket designs.

The Lost Alien Support Program isn’t just about helping stranded extraterrestrials; it’s about interstellar kindness, cosmic collaboration, and acknowledging the incredible journey of discovery we’re all on, together.

Here’s to a future of unlocking the mysteries of the universe and building bridges between worlds, one close encounter at a time.

Happy April Fools’ Day!

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

I just crashed on Earth. What should I do?

Stay calm and avoid waving all of your appendages at once, it tends to alarm the locals. Activate your emergency disguise (if applicable), and contact LASP immediately.

How do I return home?

If your ship is out of commission, try our Cosmic Rideshare App (subject to availability, surge pricing applies). Or, wait for a LASP mission to your sector, we send at least one probe every few decades.

How do I blend in with humans?

Start by nodding and saying, “Crazy weather we’re having, huh?” at random intervals. Also, avoid discussing your homeworld’s advanced technology, humans get suspicious.

I tried blending in, but humans keep asking where I’m from. Help?

If you don’t want to say the planet “Ork,” try “Ohio.” Humans rarely question that answer.

What should I do if someone sees my true form?

Calmly explain that it’s a “prank” or “new viral filter.” If that fails, claim to be a method actor preparing for a role.

Humans keep offering me "coffee." Should I drink it?

Proceed with caution. While coffee is a widely accepted form of human fuel, its effects on extraterrestrial biology are…unpredictable. One of our clients experienced 400% increase in brain activity, while another temporarily phased out of existence. Sip at your own risk.

I'm having trouble understanding human "sports." What are they yelling about?

They’re expressing “tribal loyalty” through synchronized screaming. Just join in, and avoid asking logical questions.

I keep seeing humans staring at small glowing rectangles. What are they doing?

They are attempting to communicate with “the internet.” It is a vast and confusing place, much like space, but smaller.
