That thing caught sight of some alien shit they weren't supposed to see.. Stuff that was supposed to be covered up was leaking so the FBI called in a bomb threat or some bullshit like that or pulled the fire alarm or something and evac'd. Now they are hacking and backdooring the feeds to they can draw the direct telescope info to a central location to filter out the aliens and then feed back some bullshit stuff to keep sheep nice and wooley. Cheers!
