  • A team of Harvard researchers is investigating fragments of what they believe could be alien technology. The pieces were from a meteor that landed in the ocean near Papua New Guinea back in 2014. Professor Avi Loeb, who leads the research team, joins CBS News to explain the findings.

    I've read much more about this subject, and here's what is clear: these metal balls are not traditionally natural, as they contain no nickel (nickel is found in every natural alloy in our solar system). However, the possibility that these tiny spheres were man-made, from right here on Earth, is entirely likely. Apparently there was a general dredging of the sea bed, and these were found. Thus, there isn't yet even any hard evidence that they definitely come from space. If they do, they are probably interstellar in origin, and in any case do not fit into our current understanding of naturally-occurring metals or alloys.

      Agreed, but did they say extra terrestrial? Or just not man made. Like most of the UAP news, they usually don’t specifically say extra terrestrial, just “non-human”. I think everyone assumes these unusual phenomena are space related.
      I think it’s far more likely that we’re discovering intelligent entities from the worlds oceans.

      Have we not established the laws of physics are the same throughout the universe? We have the same elements here as 1000 galaxies away. Meaning the process of these elements naturally occurring is the same. Interstellar or not.

      @spacedaze1860 Před 10 měsíci +51

      He is saying it could be something used by aliens as technology. He said that the material was stronger than any other rock they had found, which makes it plausible that it’s artificially created. A spacecraft/satellite type technology would be made out of a strong material. The fact that it’s the only object we know of to crash land from another solar system says that’s not likely to happen on accident either.
      I think there’s probably more reasoning for the leap in thinking, but seeing as I’m not an expert, I might not know about or think of those things. However, the leap makes sense to consider.

If, the Observable Universe is at least 26 billion years old, enough time certainly has passed for such a civilization to develop, if not in the Alpha Centuri, then somewhere else,and for such a craft to have travelled hundreds of millions of years finally reaching Earth.

However, the possibility that these spheres were man-made, from right here on Earth, is just as likely. Apparently there was a general dredging of the sea bed, and these were found. Thus, there isn't yet even any hard evidence that they definitely come from space. If they do, they are certainly interstellar in origin, and do not fit into our current understanding of naturally-occurring metals or alloys.

    Niel Patrick Harris does news? 😮 Also, that guy providing commentary is a G for doing the interview with TWO pictures of himself in the background.
