Beacon on …: Forgotten Weapon

Preliminary scans did not show anything unusual on …; but as we focused our attention downward, we discovered an unusual, subsurface layer of metal. Further structural analysis revealed …'s true nature: the celestial body is not a …, but an ancient spaceship that has been gradually subsumed by the rocks and dust of the system. The metal samples we drilled are so old, they precede the formation of our own home planet. It is impossible to determine anything about the ship, its makers and its function, but one thing is certain: the inert nuclear bombs we found in its remains weren't built for a peace mission.
