This week our group watched an episode of the TV show the outer limits, the episode we watched was O.B.I.T and it was about a machine and an alien. the machine was created by the alien and the machine's purpose was to once tuned to a person's brain frequency the user of the machine (which is called O.B.I.T)could watch their targets every move on a display. the episode starts with the murder of a scientist who was using the machine, because of the murder the government launches a investigation to find out what happened to the scientist later the investigators find out a alien is using the machine to kill anyone who knew of his existence. the episode was classified as science fiction because it had all the three plus one elements of science fiction. some of the elements were the fantastic assumption which was the assumption that aliens exist in the universe, the intellectual excitement is the fact the we could one day make a machine that could tune in to your brain frequency. the high adventure is present when the investigators find out who the killer is and that they are not human and finally the ambiguous ending happens when the alien confessed to killing of the scientist and then disappears into thin air. I thought the most intresting part of the episode was the idea of the O.B.I.T machine because in the real world we have tracking devices, drones and cameras that can tell like the O.B.I.T machine where you are and what you are doing almost everywhere in the world.
