“Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying ‘End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH’, the paint wouldn’t even have time to dry.”― Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time
Steven Write comes to my mind. “I have a light switch on the wall, I don’t know what i t is for. Every time I walk by it, I turn it on or off. Yesterday I got a letter from a woman in Germany. It said Knock it off!” Delivered in his trade marked dead pan monotone of course!
Not that I subscribe to it, but an enjoyable “Conspiracy Theory” is that the Ancient Egyptians came here from a dying Mars, evidenced by the Egyptian-Looking “Face” and the Pyramids… ☺

Good plan. You don’t want to create interplanetary chaos in an attempt to satisfy your curiosity.

If the switch actually works, it should be called “obit switch”.

Yeah, cover it. In fact, bury it deeper! Otherwiae some knob will come along and throw the switch to off, “just to see what happens.”
There’s ALWAYS that guy!
