    Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir does a great job at hypothesizing a first interaction like this.

      Good lord I love that book.

      I really like that he recognized that you’ll have 2 beings both motivated to understand each other. The back and forth communication, along with some coding skills, made good progress pretty quick.

        Did you do the paperback, or the audiobook? The audiobook was enhanced with some neat audio tricks for Rocky. It was a fabulous read.
