Well the Home Planet had sent a urgent space telegram to
Morbo's big ship telling the invasion force to hold off for a while
and so the soldiers and civilians aboard the Centauri 9
went into the stasis tubes aboard the ship and went into a long deep sleep.
Finally the timer counted down to ZERO and it was time to get to
work,specifically 2019 AD,about 75,000 years after the colonists
had gone to sleep.
So,since there had been a glitch in the Centauri 9's Species
Analysis Auto Controls,the TF machines were about 75,000
years behind the times.
We're talking aliens taking on the shape of wooly mammoths,sabre tooth cats and other animals not seen on Earth for 10,000 years,including the giant lizard Megasaur Rex.
And so a bunch of alien soldiers and civilians went in the
TF Tunnel as aliens and came out as a variety of ice age and pre Ice age critters.
That done they clambered aboard a shuttle lander and soon were descending through the atmosphere and
landed that night in the deep lake beside
Dinosaur Valley Boys and Girls Camp......
