One NASA scientist says intelligent aliens have possibly, already visited our Earth.
But because of their ‘extremely tiny’ size, we may have missed it.
Silvano P. Colombano shares that ‘super intelligent’ aliens who are capable of interstellar space-travel, in theory — would posses technology that humans cannot even comprehend.
NASA is currently looking for other civilizations in the universe, or as the official program is titled, ‘Search for extraterrestrial intelligence.’
Dr. Colombano in March shared how important it is for scientists to expand what they believe extra-terrestrials look like when speaking at the California SETI-backed Decoding Alien Intelligence Workshop.
‘I simply want to point out the fact that the intelligence we might find and that might choose to find us (if it hasn’t already) might not be at all be produced by carbon-based organisms like us,’ his report read.
He went on to say how scientists much challenge their assumptions as ‘the size of the “explorer” might be that of an extremely tiny super-intelligent entity,’ he says.
Dr. Colobano also believes scientists are married to the idea that they need to discover modern human technology on other planets.
He argues how this factor could mean missing a sign of discovering a civilization inhabiting a planet much older than earth.
And as we may not be able to even imagine what that looks like, we just may miss it.
Dr. Colobano shared:
‘Considering further that technological development in our civilization started only about 10K years ago and has seen the rise of scientific methodologies only in the past 500 years, we can surmise that we might have a real problem in predicting technological evolution even for the next thousand years, let alone 6 Million times that amount!’
He also shared how fast radio bursts that are being analyzed could potentially be out of date and encouraged ‘speculative physics’ grounded in solid theories.
Dr. Colobano also said that not every UFO sighting can be ‘explained or denied’.
FRBs or fast radio bursts are radio emissions that appear both randomly and temporary.
This makes that difficult to find as well as hard to study, as it is not known what causes the short and powerful bursts.
Many have thought the FRBs could have been stars colliding or messages that were being artificially created.
When the very first FRB was spotted or ‘heard’ by radio telescopes in 2001 — it wasn’t actually discovered until 2007 when scientists where analyzing archival data.
But as it was both random and temporary, it took many years for astronomers to agree it wasn’t an issue with the telescope.
Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics researchers say how FRBs could be used to study both the structure as well as the evolution of the universe — despite its origin not being fully comprehended.
A huge population of FRBs that are far away could possibly act as probes of material across large distances.
The study of this material show help scientists and researches a better understanding of basic cosmic constituents, like ordinary matter, dark matter as well as dark energy — all constituents that tell us how fast the universe is expanding.
