Mystery radio waves from space could be produced by alien technology

Remember the famous anomalous signal picked up on August 24th 2001? The radio trace of a sudden and very short high-energy emission, which lasted just 5 milliseconds (0.005 seconds), it was not clear what had caused it, a fast radio flash that was supposed to be terrestrial in the beginning. An interference of some kind that for a moment had distorted the detection of a datum by the antenna. Numerous analyzes were carried out which allowed to exclude an interference of terrestrial origin: the signal had really arrived from Space, but its origin remained a mystery. Although many researchers at the time were not aware of it, with those early researches a new science was born dedicated to the study of fast radio bursts. The radio signal came from a galaxy distant from us three billion light years and could be the key to understanding the causes and functioning of these sudden radio wave emissions in the cosmos, which last a few seconds and are picked up by the giant terrestrial radio telescopes. Our ability to better understand how the Universe works, how it formed billions of years ago and how it later evolved, depends on understanding the FRBs. The results of the discovery, recently published in the journal Nature and Astrophysical Journal Letters, are also very fascinating: it is a bit like traveling through time, considering that they deal with events that lasted very few moments, measured and reached up to us after a journey in the Cosmos of 3 billion years. Now a team of Harvard University scientists theorize that these radio signals from space could be evidence of advanced technology beyond our planet.

RADIO IMPULSES FROM ALIEN DEVICES

Scientists at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics have proposed a curious theory to explain the mysterious phenomenon known as fast radio burst. As reported in a statement by the Astrophysics Center, spatial signals could be evidence of advanced alien technology. In particular, it is assumed that these fast radio pulses would escape from the alien planet through massive transmitters that feed the interstellar probes into distant galaxies. The alien interstellar probes thus act as a repeater of radio signals. As the theoretical physicist Avi Loeb states, “Fast radio pulses are extremely bright due to their short duration and rise to great distances, and a possible natural source has not yet been identified with certainty”. “It is desirable to contemplate and test an artificial origin of these signals,” he added. Avi Loeb and his co-author Manasvi Lingam (Harvard University), examined the feasibility of creating a strong enough radio transmitter to be detectable through these immense distances. Scientists have discovered that if the transmitter was powered by solar energy, the sunlight that falls on a surface of a planet twice that of the Earth would be sufficient to generate the energy needed. A similar construction project would go beyond our technology.
