Aliens: Do they exist? NASA scientist replies

[ad_1] Do you think that aliens exist? Scientists are in constant search of another form of life beyond Earth in the solar system and much beyond. From radio communications to even spacecraft, NASA has deployed a number of missions to find that out. However, nothing factual has ever emerged. Nevertheless, there are multiple theories about the existence of aliens and people are curious and want to know about whether they exist or are merely a figment of our imagination. If you too are interested in knowing what NASA scientists think about the exitence of extraterrestrial life, then just read on.Extraterrestrial lifeNASA says that extraterrestrial life has not been discovered, but that does not rule out its existence. NASA's astrobiologis Lindsay Hays says, "We are dedicated to exploring ...

Aliens will first contact our AI, says expert

[ad_1] According to Avi Loeb, a renowned scientist from Harvard University, the first contact with extraterrestrials (ET) is likely to occur through artificial intelligence rather than direct interaction with humans. Loeb suggests that aliens may opt to send drones or unmanned vehicles to Earth instead of crewed spaceships, as interstellar travel is a time-consuming process and takes tens of thousands of years, if not more, Daily Star reports.However, artificial intelligence (AI) is lifeless and can stay dormant for as long as required to endure the lengthy journey. In the event of a visit by Aliens, our own AI systems could be employed to decipher and communicate with their AI counterparts. Loeb speculates that there could be an affinity between aliens and AI, potentially leading to a ...

The elusive ET found? Alien-friendly conditions detected on Saturn’s Moon Enceladus

[ad_1] Scientists studying data from the Cassini spacecraft, a probe sent by the US space agency NASA, have made an important discovery on one of Saturn's icy moons. They have found high concentrations of phosphorus, which is crucial for all living processes on Earth.This phosphorus was detected in ice crystals below the surface of Enceladus, Saturn's moon that has an ocean beneath its icy exterior. Finding phosphorus is a significant breakthrough for the possibility of alien life on this moon. Researchers had already found six other chemical elements necessary for all living things: carbon, oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, and sulphur. The missing piece was phosphorus, and now they have found it. The Cassini spacecraft was the first to orbit Saturn and collected data during its mission from...

NASA talks UFOs with public ahead of final report on unidentified flying objects

[ad_1] NASA held its first public meeting on UFOs Wednesday a year after launching a study into unexplained sightings.The space agency televised the hours long hearing featuring an independent panel of experts. The team includes 16 scientists and other experts selected by NASA including retired astronaut Scott Kelly, the first American to spend nearly a year in space. Several committee members have been subjected to “online abuse” for serving on the team, which detracts from the scientific process, said NASA's Dan Evans, adding that NASA security is dealing with it. “It's precisely this rigorous, evidence-based approach that allows one to separate the fact from fiction," Evans said.The study is a first step in trying to explain mysterious sightings in the sky that NASA calls UAPs, or un...

ET calling from Mars? Just a test, but you can help decode the signal from robotic orbiter

[ad_1] After extensive efforts to detect extraterrestrial intelligence, a message from outer space was picked up by three prominent Earth-based radio astronomy observatories today. The signal originated in the vicinity of Mars, and its contents remain hidden at present. However, contrary to initial excitement, the message is not of extraterrestrial origin. It was deliberately transmitted as part of a simulation to mimic an actual communication from aliens. This exercise serves as a dress rehearsal, enabling us to gauge our preparedness and response if we were to encounter a genuine extraterrestrial message. This was organised by the astronomers at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California.SETI is devoted to searching for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence and it aims to initia...

Shocking! Solar storms played a vital role in the origin of life on Earth, says NASA study

[ad_1] Solar storms have always been looked at as a destructive force that is capable of damaging our current technology infrastructure. And this is not without reason. Just last year, a powerful solar storm destroyed more than 40 Starlink satellites. And if you go a little further in the past, in 1859, the Carrington event witnessed telegraph services being disrupted and many operators suffering shocks from the wires just because of a powerful solar storm. As such, it is difficult to imagine that without such a monstrous force from the Sun, life on Earth may never have originated. But that is exactly what a study by a group of NASA scientists is claiming.This study has been published in the life journal and it goes over the role of highly energized solar particles in the formation of a...

Aliens? Falling satellite? Unexplained flash puzzles Kyiv accustomed to missiles

[ad_1] A flash of light that lit up the night sky above wartime Kyiv has led to widespread confusion, public speculation about what caused it, and lighthearted jokes about space aliens in a city more accustomed to Russian missile attacks.Video clips posted on social media showed the sky over the Ukrainian capital suddenly illuminated by a bright light late on Wednesday. In one clip, a flaming object appeared to be crashing to the ground. Kyiv authorities said an unknown aerial object had fallen from the sky at around 10.00 p.m. local time (1900 GMT) on Wednesday, forcing them to announce an air alert in Kyiv and the surrounding region. Initial alarm gave way to questions about what had happened, which remained unanswered the next morning. "After verification and clarification, the infor...

AI to Kill Off Humanity? The Aliens Have Landed, and We Created Them

[ad_1] It is not every day that I read a prediction of doom as arresting as Eliezer Yudkowsky's in Time magazine last week. “The most likely result of building a superhumanly smart AI, under anything remotely like the current circumstances,” he wrote, “is that literally everyone on Earth will die. Not as in ‘maybe possibly some remote chance,' but as in ‘that is the obvious thing that would happen.' … If somebody builds a too-powerful AI, under present conditions, I expect that every single member of the human species and all biological life on Earth dies shortly thereafter.”Do I have your attention now? Yudkowsky is not some random Cassandra. He leads the Machine Intelligence Research Institute, a nonprofit in Berkeley, California, and has already written extensively on the question o...

NASA could look for ALIEN LIFE on Saturn’s moon without even putting a foot on it

[ad_1] Scientists have found an ingenious way for NASA to find alien life on Enceladus, one of the moons of Saturn which would be done without even landing on the celestial sphere. Are there aliens out there? The question of whether we are alone in this world has pushed the scientific community to devoting ever greater resources on the answer. We have searched in far away galaxies looking for planets which are similar to Earth in composition and are placed in similar orbits in their solar system. However, NASA now believes that the answer to this question might be much closer to home than previously thought. Enceladus, one of the 83 moons of Saturn is believed to host alien life within itself and very soon the American space agency will launch its mission to explore its possibility. B...

Signatures of alien technology could be how humanity first finds extraterrestrial life

[ad_1] Signatures of alien technology could be how humanity first finds extraterrestrial life If an alien were to look at Earth, many human technologies – from cell towers to fluorescent light bulbs – could be a beacon signifying the presence of life.We are two astronomers who work on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence – or SETI. In our research, we try to characterise and detect signs of technology originating from beyond Earth. These are called technosignatures. While scanning the sky for a TV broadcast of some extraterrestrial Olympics may sound straightforward, searching for signs of distant, advanced civilisations is a much more nuanced and difficult task than it might seem.
