      And they sent down some astronauts

      To study our bones

      Through the miles of garbage

      Beneath all the junk that we owned

      Carbon dating beer cans

      Condoms and Twinkie wrappers

      We were something beautiful, baby

      What the hell happened?

        Well, two of those things can potentially be carbon dated…

        Actinides or something would probably work for the cans, assuming they know when we did all the nuclear testing.

      Or all the empires for that matter (if I haven’t missed a joke)

        I’m not sure if you got the intended joke which wouldn’t make your joke any less valuable. Most empires were before plastic was a thing. The Inca empire or the Tsar empire didn’t have plastic yet so they didn’t leave all this waste behind
