An alien would be unaware of classifications such as "post modern," and therefore would not attempt to describe Earth in any particular manner. The alien's report would be very factual and filled with concrete descriptions of observations made while studying this new world. If the alien was evaluating Earth as a possible location for an expansion into new territory for the lifeforms existing on the alien's home planet, the report would probably also include assessments of Earth in terms of compatibility with whatever uses the aliens were considering for the planet.

For example, the alien might describe climate changes on Earth by reporting, "Some parts of the planet experience wide variations in temperature at different times of the planet's rotation around it's star. Temperature changes may be accompanied by violent storms causing destruction of plant life and items constructed by the dominant animals of the planet. In areas having cold temperatures, the elemental compound H2O may fall onto the planet as cold white bits of matter that may accumulate to great depth; liquid masses of this compound may become solid in cold conditions. In areas having hot temperatures, the compound falls in a liquid form; when large amounts of the compound fall on a small area of the planet in a short period of time, the planet area may be severely damaged due to an incapability of the planet to absorb the compound quickly."
