Incredible. It looks like two snowballs met and melted together. Like the bottom half of a Snowman.

Ask the other species what they've achieved. They don't even know space exists. Humans rock.

It looks like the comet where the lander _Philae_ landed, doesn't it?

When a human cell divides the nucleus disperses to allow the DNA to be shared between the two newly forming cells. During the process the nucleus must reform in the two new cells to surround the DNA - this is done via nucleus membrane vesicles fusing together. Seems the inner universe copies the same fundamental laws of physics as the outer universe. You can clearly see how they have fused together, get enough fusion of debris you have the makings of a new planet.
