      The scientific community would just collapse and we’d be worshipping cats as a world wide religion.

      Maybe even an older model.
      Bonus points if it was a popular model in a science fiction show.

      My take of that would be the station from the little martian from Looney Tunes in the full 3D cartoon style.
      Sort of like a cell shaded structure in a realistic lighted environment.

    A single protein molecule.

    Something subtle enough to spark debate and controversy but not overplaying it like putting an entire living thing from Earth would be.
