Aliens in the constellation Hercules may have had an effect – TVNZ

Last call

A few days ago it became known that the Russian radio telescope RATAN-600 intercepted an incredibly powerful message that came from the constellation of Hercules – specifically, from the stars, having a code designation HD164595 . Someone was saying a few seconds at a frequency of 11 gigahertz. That corresponds to a wavelength of 2.7 cm

The news that caught something strange, spread around the world the American amateur astronomer Paul Gilster (Paul Gilster) -. Placed it on its website Centauri Dreams. At the same time a lover said that he had received information directly from the authors of the discovery – that is, from the staff of the Special Astrophysical Observatory (SAO) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) – and it belongs to the RATAN-600, located at Lower Arkhyz , Zelenchuksky district, Karachaevo -Cherkesskaya Republic.

As it turned out, the information letters were sent and many other astronomers to help figure out what kind of signal came from the star HD164595, located in the 95 light years from Earth.

The signal received May 15, 2015 by the star HD164595.

Astronomers are interested in opening. Moreover, agitated. For several days can not rest.

Intriguingly, firstly, the fact that the star, from which someone honked, similar to our sun. Around the planet. One, though very large, similar to our Jupiter , only hot, even found. And it is possible that there are also smaller neighbors -. With our Earth

Second, among the naturally occurring signals coming from the depths of the universe, nothing like this had not seen before

. third, amazed signal strength – weaker pulsars flash

finally, a long time nobody us signals -. even boring once was. Here Paul Gilster and suggested that the RATAN-600 has received a long-awaited news of the brothers on reason. More precisely, not rule it. The “stirred up” colleagues found their understanding. And he brought practical benefits: for two groups of astronomers (Allen Telescope Array, northern California and Boquete Optical SETI Observatory, Panama), working on the search for extraterrestrial intelligence program signals (SETI), announced that they are beginning to follow the HD164595. Suddenly, from the back once again to zoom? RATAN-600 received a single signal

Here is the radio telescope RATAN-600 -. The largest in the world. It has a circular mirror.

Space mystery

The signal was caught on May 15, 2015. Why do about it reported more than a year later?

There is no exact answer. The scientist, who actually caught a signal – one Nicholas Bursov , where -That was gone. The connection does not go out for several days. But it seems that someone from his circle or he himself announced the discovery. And sent to the respective images, confirming the discovery of

Catherine Filippova -. Head of research and external relations CAO confirmed the incident and called it a leak – either accidental , whether intentional. At the same time Catherine Eduardovna said that the observations in the course of which was adopted by the same signal, really Wires – within the SETI program

At the Observatory most of the signal learned immediately.. But the blow did not become a sensation. For example, Gregory Beskin – a scientist who exactly is responsible to the CAO for the SETI, do not consider it a signal worthy of attention – they say, do not meet the criteria to be met by signals from aliens.

it is possible that Nicholas Bursova had their arguments. Or they appear today. What led to the leak. Its result is phenomenal – the scientific and non-scientific world of excitement. In both worlds, many believe that the aliens finally showed up.

COMMENT SPECIALIST

It’s not encryption

– It is unlikely that the received signal has to some cosmic event – upset the doctor of physical and mathematical sciences, leading researcher SAO Oleg Verhodinov. – Most likely distorted picture of the electromagnetic disturbance of terrestrial origin, and the direction from which it came, coincided with the direction of a star

The signal seems to have been close, but not from a distance of 95 light years.. Therefore, it is alleged incredible power was an illusion. To zoom so that we caught so noticeable surge, the aliens would need the energy of all their stars. But this is unlikely. ? For what

The signal could be mistaken for the so-called fast radio bursts – FRB – they are also very mysterious. But “our” much longer. FRB last millisecond.

Prudent astronomers still doubt whether the signal sent by aliens.

– Suppose – I try to find out – that the aliens still for something honored. But a compressed signal. You should not try it “expand”? Suddenly there anything encrypted

-? The received signal is nothing remarkable except the amplitude, – Oleg replies. – No hidden features

-. I do believe – continues scientist – that representatives of developed extraterrestrial civilizations will not even attempt to establish contact using radio waves. Radio – the lot of backward civilizations. Even we move on optical technology. It makes more sense to wait for “hello” from the brothers in mind in the light, x-ray or gamma-ray ranges. With their help, by the way, you can transfer far more information than the radio.

With the Verhodinovym Accepts American astronomer Nick SESC (Nick Suntzeff) of Texas University. He believes that the signal source has become some kind of military equipment. These devices often operate at a frequency of 11 gigahertz.

And at this time

aliens from the microwave

Australian astronomers working on since 1998 radiotelescope “Parks”, the host country and enough powerful signals, duration of 2 seconds. At one time they were considered alien – perhaps even intelligent. But in 2015 it became clear that the source of the signals Microwave -pech that “signals” in the moment when someone opens the door. If along with the microwave operates the telescope, he picks up the interference that appear as a signal from outer space.

Who knows, maybe it turns out that with Ratanov happened like a misunderstanding.

not the first time

Wow!

August 15, 1977 the incredible happened. Dr. Jerry Ayman (Jerry Ehman), working on the project SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) on radio “Big Ear” at the University of Ohio (Big Ear radio observatory at Ohio State University), registered long and strong radio signal, which is in all respects consistent with the fact that the actual doctor was looking for – the signals of artificial origin

The famous “Wow-signal”. His secret has not yet been disclosed.

Russian astronomer, of course, would say otherwise. Chances are unprintable. But shocked by an American doctor, who saw the sensational data, I exclaimed “Wow!”. He circled in red pencil the appropriate numbers on the printout and wrote this thing “Wow!”. After that, for the mysterious signal and stuck the name “Wow! Signal”, and not some other …
