This is a very popular game over at TNO, so I figured I'd start it over here, too. You have 20 questions to figure out what this object is, but you cannot ask whether it is a species, starship, or anomaly. Go!

Is it alive?

------------------
I bet when Neanderthal kids would make a snowman, someone would
always end up saying "Don't forget the big heavy eyebrows." Then they would all get embarrassed because they remembered they had the big hunky eyebrows too, and then they would get mad and eat the snowman.
