New Harvard Theory: Extraterrestrials Could Have Star Powered Spaceships

This might not be common knowledge, but fast radio bursts (FRB) were first discovered more than 10 years ago. Their place of origin, however, has been a complete mystery since their discovery. A new paper by Harvard researchers, published in the journal Astrophysical Journal Letters, outlines how the possibility that these may actually be artificial hasn’t really been investigated, despite the fact that it is one of the most plausible hypotheses. In the paper, they examine the possibility that these FBRs are artificial beams that have been set up as beacons for the purpose of driving light sails, which would be used to propel spaceships:

The idea that extraterrestrial civilizations may be using radio beams (manifested as dispersed pulses) is certainly not a new one, as it dates back to the pioneering paper by Cocconi & Morrison (1959). This idea was extended by researchers engaged in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), accounts of which can be found in Drake & Sobel (1992) and Tarter (2001); also Siemion et al. (2012). In addition to traditional, radio-based SETI, many other approaches have been advanced for detecting alien civilizations (e.g., Dyson 1960; Schwartz & Townes 1961; Howard et al. 2004; Benford et al. 2010; Wright et al. 2014; Lingam & Loeb 2017).

The study goes on to demonstrate how FRB parameters were consistent with their hypothesis, and showed how the emitter of the FBR was twice the diameter of our planet. In the conclusion, the authors also state:

We illustrated that the frequency needed to power the light sail was consistent with those observed for FRBs, lending further credence to our hypothesis. Our analysis gave rise to many interesting consequences. It was shown that the payload of the light sail and the beamʼs characteristic period should be approximately 106 tons and 7 days, respectively. Moreover, under certain simplifying assumptions, we derived an upper bound on the total number of intelligent civilizations in a galaxy (akin to the Milky Way). We also suggested that smaller light sails may be widely prevalent, which are presently undetectable as their spectral flux densities are too low. Using the all-sky cosmological rate of FRBs, we argued that an FRB might originate within the Milky Way once every several centuries.

Although the possibility that FRBs are produced by extragalactic civilizations is more speculative than an astrophysical origin, quantifying the requirements necessary for an artificial origin serves, at the very least, the important purpose of enabling astronomers to rule it out with future data.

Strange radio wave flashes from far outside of our Milky Way galaxy (or in it) have scientists completely confused. Since 2001, telescopes have been picking up these fast radio bursts (FRBs). Only a total of ten have ever been detected. The bursts last just a few milliseconds and then explode with just as much energy as our Sun releases in a month, which is massive.

One of the most recent bursts occurred in 2014, and it was the first one in history to be caught in action, thanks to the Parkes Telescope in New South Wales, Australia. The others were found by examining data after the bursts had already arrived on Earth.

“The weird part is that they all fit a pattern that doesn’t match what we know about cosmic physics.”

Michael Hippke from the Institute for Data Analysis In Neukrichen-Vluyn, Germany, and John Learned from the University of Hawaii in Manoa, have not ruled out the possibility that these bursts come from somewhere within our galaxy. They determined this by calculating how far the bursts have travelled, a technique known as “the dispersion measure.” (source)

The Harvard paper hypothesizes, based on their evidence, that they do originate from within the Milky Way Galaxy.

It’s also interesting to note that all 10 of the detected bursts have dispersion measures that are multiples of 187.5. This is both fascinating and unexplainable, and they are suggesting that this line-up of the dispersion implies five sources for the bursts that are all at regularly spaced distances from Earth.

According to their research, there is a 5 in 10,000 probability that this type of line-up is a coincidence, and that it is “very, very hard to explain.”

What could the sources of these signals heading towards Earth be? Are they unidentified cosmic objects? Is it human technology? Or is the question not what are they, but from whom? If the natural explanations don’t seem to fit, the researchers have concluded in their paper that “an artificial source (human or non-human) must be considered.”

Jill Tarter, the former director of the SETI Institute in California, says “These have been intriguing as an engineered signal, or evidence of extraterrestrial technology, since the first was discovered.”

Just this year, scientists discovered six more bursts of radio signals, this time coming from a place in deep space outside of our galaxy. A total of 17 such radio signals have been received from this location in space, and given their nature, many people believe they are extraterrestrial in origin. These signals were detected at the Green Bank Telescope in the U.S. and the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico.

The sheer power of these signals, as well as their having been detected coming from deep space, is leading to speculation that there may be an advanced extraterrestrial civilization behind them.

We Already Know That We Are Not Alone

A big theme here at CE is creating awareness about the fact that there is near undeniable evidence showing that “we are being visited and have been visited for many years by people from outer space, from other civilizations.” (source)

That’s just one high ranking military officer, but there are hundreds, if not thousands, who have now officially come forward testifying either to the reality of UFOs, or that some of these UFOs are indeed extraterrestrial in origin.

The fact that we are not alone is a strong general scientific consensus, but whether or not we are being visited remains a hot topic of debate.

“Yes there have been crashed craft, and bodies recovered. . . . We are not alone in the universe, they have been coming here for a long time. . . . I happen to be privileged enough to be in on the fact that we have been visited on this planet, and the UFO phenomenon is real.”

– Doctor Edgar Mitchell, 6th man to walk on the moon (source) (source)(source)

What’s more, UFOs have been verified by dozens of governments, but the extraterrestrial question has not been.

Not only that, video footage is popping up everywhere that is raising even more questions. You can see a couple of examples in an article we recently published here.

The question of extraterrestrial contact opens up a pandora’s box of questions and concerns, and it’s no coincidence, I believe, that all of this is happening at a critical time on our planet. This is part of the major consciousness shift that’s happening on the planet right now, as we step into the world that’s been hidden from us for years. Extraterrestrial disclosure has the potential to completely change the way we think about multiple aspects of human life, as it is and would be the biggest story in human history to date. That being said, in the black budget world, we’ve heard that it’s just the tip of the iceberg.

Below is a video we’ve shared countless times, but it’s a powerful one because what he says is true. There really is “abundant evidence.”

We’ve presented this evidence in hundreds of articles that deal with this topic. To see some of those, you can visit the exopolitics section of our website here.

I’d also like to mention that, whenever we discuss this topic, and move on from asking whether they are here to why they are here, we will always end up with labels of gods, demons, angels, and more. Human beings love to categorize and judge things they do not understand, but if we take a step back and look at the evidence objectively, we’ll see that the most common theme in contact stories is care for our planet, as well as a spiritual understanding of ourselves and the nature of the universe. This becomes even more acceptable to those of us who research quantum physics and neuroscience, as many aspects of these subjects are catching up to ancient Eastern spiritual philosophies.

It’s quite interesting, to say the least.

This is why, for me personally, I take great interest in the spiritual nature of things, and, when it comes to extraterrestrial contact, there is no better place to realize the spiritual connection from a mainstream perspective than by studying the beliefs of indigenous cultures.
