In short:

Indian police have arrested an American man who visited a restricted island and left offerings to a tribe not contacted by the modern world.

Mykhailo Polyakov had previously made two unsuccessful attempts to reach North Sentinel Island, home of the Sentinelese people.

What's next?

Local authorities say he has been released on a three-day remand "for further interrogation".

I would appreciate it if hyper advanced aliens came to earth. That said, I wouldn't want some random crackpot alien coming to earth doing no due diligence and leaving us with nothing but hyper soda before leaving and never coming back
