That alloy artifacts website is definitely a cool one. I found it when researching a 1/4" drive Craftsman tool set I inherited from my dad. It had markings that were unusual and turned out to be '40's era. A cool walk back into history.
John, thanks for the journey into movie history as well. The one translation I found that struck me was. "There's hope for Earth, if the scientists can be reached."
If that's too political, feel free to slap my hand.
