A meteor that struck Earth almost ten years ago left aliens traces. Avi Loeb, an astrophysicist, did a new study on meteor pieces that implies the meteor may have come to Earth from an alien civilization. The meteor’s remains were collected from the Pacific Ocean to determine its origin.
Loeb says that these meteor fragments could be “billions of years old” and have traveled to Earth from interstellar space beyond the Solar System.
Many astronomers and physicists had previously claimed that the meteor was made of coal ash produced by humans, but Loeb discounted this idea. Instead, he stated that they are not comparable to anything on Earth.
According to Loeb, the 850 tiny metallic spheres of the meteor, which were analyzed in three independent labs, were made of some “alien” components.
Meteor fragments contain “alien” materials.
The examination performed at the three labs revealed that up to 10% of the meteor fragments included components not found in the Solar System. They were a novel class of differentiated elemental composition known as BeLaU, which consisted of Beryllium, Lanthanum, and Uranium. Though these elements are present on Earth, the patterns in which they were grouped in the shards do not correspond to our planet’s alloys.
“What we did was compare the 55 elements from the periodic table in the coal ash to those special pellets we found,” said Loeb. “And obviously it’s very different. It raises the possibility that it may have been a traveler-like meteorite artificially created by another civilization.”
AVI finds ‘Alien’ meteor fragments unlike the solar system’s usual
Avi stated that the chemical composition of the fragments differed from that of common Solar System meteors.
“We interpret it as being from outside the Solar System. It constitutes the first recognized interstellar meteor,” claims Loeb.
The meteor that fell into Earth ten years ago is known by the technical designation CNEOS1 2014-01-08. It has a diameter of 1.5 feet, a mass of 1,014 pounds, and a pre-impact speed of 37.3 miles per second. Loeb’s crew discovered bits of it last year off the shore of the Manus Islands in Papua New Guinea.
Since then, several independent scientists have attempted to determine its origin. Loeb believes that his meteor origin theory could be humanity’s first proof of alien existence.
“The universe is so vast and instead of continuing to tell ourselves that there is nothing like us we should look for it. They don’t care about us because we’ve only been on Earth for a few million years. They probably started the journey billions of years ago,” said Loeb.
