Space people, mining slaves...huh??

from my sources this was for all intents and purposes a heavenly host.

Can you define 'heavenly host' please?

Don't think too much into it, host means multitude, and heavenly means from the heavens. And yes there is a bit of a joke in their since aliens and gods or angels are supposedly pretty much the same entities.

That's pretty much what I meant to say. I just meant to say it was a varied bunch from lots of different origins, and present here for a variety of reasons.
