The extraterrestrial life expectancies seem to have created a mysterious radio signal for a group of astronomers from our closest stellar “neighbor”, Nearest Centaur (Proxima Centauri), which “Carefully researched.”
Specifically, the researchers involved in Innovative listening project – a detection initiative of 70 70 million extraterrestrial life Through radio telescopes, they are already studying radio waves since April 2019.
The closest centaur is far 4.2 light years from Earth and has two confirmed planets on its belt, one Giant gas “, Jupiter type and a rock mass, called “Next b”.
The new signal was detected by Parkes Radio Telescope in Australia τον April or May 2019, according to your report The Guardianand, unlike previous radio signals, it has not been assigned to any source generated by Earth or near Earth.
It is possible that the signal has a natural explanation for its origin, but this did not prevent the astronomers of the Project from giving it more value and attention than usual.
The team of astronomers assures that this is one of the most fascinating radio signals detected since 1977 and the appearance of the famous “WOW sign!” which led many to assume that he came from a distant alien civilization.
THE Next b it is a rocky mass similar to Earth orbiting within the nearest Centaur “zone”, an area where liquid could flow on its surface.
However, since “Proxima Centauri” it is a red dwarf, the “belt” is very close to it, which means that the planet is probably “blocked” and exposed to intense radiation, making the formation of a civilization unlikely, at least on the surface.
The radio signal was detected in 980 MHz and the frequency changes detected by the Parkes telescope correspond to the movement of a planet. This suggests that the existence of a third planet within the system could likely be proven, despite signs of an alien civilization, according to the researchers.
Pete Worden, its director Innovative project, He stated that the signals are likely interference from ground sources and cannot yet be clearly explained.
The investigated beam has not been rediscovered since the first observation in April or May 2019, leading astronomers to speculate that it is similar to “What a sign! “from 1977. The “Breakthrough Listen” astronomy team is currently working on a report on their findings, with no date set for publication.
The initiative was started by a Silicon Valley technology investor, Yuri milner in 2015 with the goal of searching for (and locating) alien signals and was designed to last for a decade.
Speaking, however, Guardian, astrobiologist Lewis dartnell from the University of Westminster, lowered expectations as claimed to be “Extremely unlikely” This radio signal comes from an alien civilization. “We have been searching for extraterrestrial life for a long time and the thought that it might be before our eyes, in the next star system, makes the appearance unlikely… more unlikely. The probability that there are only two civilizations in the entire galaxy and in fact these civilizations are next to each other among the 400 billion stars, is beyond the limits of rationality. added.
“Anyway, I would like to make a mistake …” completed.
