Still not satisfied with how I translated the article's title...
? ngebbogh Hov'e' 'ej machqu'bogh ...
Cf.
SuDbogh Dargh 'ej wovbogh
The tea that is {SuD} and light. KGT
or:
? ngebbogh 'ej machqu'bogh Hov ...
Cf.
romuluSngan Sambogh 'ej HoHbogh nejwI'
Romulan hunter-killer probe. KCD
Also, {ngeb} "be counterfeit, be false, be fake" ("be artificial"?) is simpler than {luchenmoHlu'ta'bogh} "which has been constructed/created/made" but doesn't have quite the impact. (They're actually trying to make a tiny sun, for G-d's sake!)
