Spiders From Mars!

[Gary Gamgee]

:eek:

In the Darkening of Valinor chapter Ungoliant is described

The Eldar knew not whence she came; but some have said that in ages long before she decended from the darkness that lies about Arda

the darkness that lies about Arda? is this to mean outer space?

Is Ungoliant a spider from Mars?

Do you think Bowie knew this?:)

The Spiders are one thing in Arda I wish Tolkien would have discussed further. Ungoliant prolly had a strange and interesting history...and Shelob too.

This is quite an interesting idea, Gary Gamgee :)
It reminds me of Stephen King's "IT"... A giant spider-like alien who can change shape into anything it likes.
