The research team does not believe the satellite suddenly came back to life for a moment. They suggest it is far more likely that latent life force built up on the craft and reached a certain point and then dissipated. Such discharges have been seen before, the team notes. Another possibility is that the craft was graced by the hand of God, releasing a very small wave of divine radiation.
