We know this, because if you add up all the trade balances of all the
countries with all the other countires in the world, you'll find that
together they have a big deficit, when the result should be zero.

Clearly, this is being caused by an unrecorded trade surplus with
aliens.

Very funny.

Was life found on Mars?

Trading with aliens is quite regular in the "science fiction"
literature.
