NASA Declares Possible ET Signal! ,kind of!

iPlop

06 February 2011

No one knows for sure what caused this signal. There is a slight possibility that it just might originate from an extraterrestrial intelligence. The bright colors on the blue background indicate that an anomalous signal was received here on Earth by a radio telescope involved in a Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI).

Interesting thing to say.

Although this strong signal was never positively identified, astronomers have identified in it many attributes characteristic of a more mundane and ultimately terrestrial origin. In this case, a leading possibility is that the signal originates from an unusual modulation between a GPS satellite and an unidentified Earth-based source.No signal has yet been strong enough or run long enough to be unambiguously identified as originating from an extraterrestrial intelligence.

So it's one of two things

A) it's from earth but we cannot identify it

it's from aliens

Why would they even dare to mention ET's?This ET stuff is all over the Tv these days ,there are 16 hollywood movies being released this year with ET's in them.More than any year ever ,from childrens movies ,to Action ,to Thriller movies.What's up with all the ET stuff lately? What's it all about?

People are seeing ufo's all over the place what's up?

I have been saying this to people since last year that some form of disclosure is defo on the way and based my opinion on the amount of new movies coming out that were about aliens in some shape or form. I didn't realise that 16 were coming out this year but if you check from 2008 to present there have been a sh!t load released

When NASA first started sending up astronauts, they quickly discovered that ballpoint pens would not work in zero gravity. To combat the problem, NASA scientists spent a decade and $12 billion to develop a pen that writes in zero gravity, upside down, underwater, on almost any surface including glass and at temperatures ranging from below freezing to 300°C.

The Russians used a pencil.

You'd want to go back beyond 2008 to see any real pattern indicating a rise in the no. of Alien/UFO related films (as if an increase means anything in any case).

Wheres the figure of 16 coming from anyway? Is that figure including, say, Brazilian terrestrial (pun unintended) releases, straight-to-dvd releases in Japan, or TV films from India?

If movies with aliens in them is in any way evidence that we will be having visitors soon then using the same logic we should be more worried about vampires. Has been a huge increase in vamp movies recently... think about it Johnny Depp does some pirate movies and next thing Somalia is awash in them.

Probably just an unusual interaction between a lightning sprite escaping from the Earth's atmosphere and a satellite's transmission, GPS or otherwise, which just happened to be captured/recorded for the first time. It also looks kind of similar to the "dawn chorus" tweeting type sounds which you can capture and record with specialised equipment. Haven't actually heard it yet though, the website is overloaded that's hosting the .wav file

If we did actually get a signal that originated from an ET, it would be very interesting indeed to see how the various religions responded to it. Presumably there would be a lot of denial, and you could see large tracts of scripture being reinterpreted to prove that whichever god had actually predicted it all along.

NASA have ~$18bn budget and 300000 employees. They find a 'something' and immediately release this big news story for people to lap up. Jaysus, tell ye wha, sounds like monkeys typing Shakespeare.

NASA are definintely trying to raise their profile - public interest in space has fallen off a cliff since the late '60s, early 70's.

On the other hand, would you agree that it would be a helluva lot more surprising if there was nobody else out there? This amazing image shows that in an a tiny area of space*, there are nearly 3000 galaxies, each of which contains hundreds of millions of stars. I think that says it all.

*The equivalent area that would be taken up by a tennis ball seen from 100 metres away

Fashion? There was a big rise in this stuff coming up to the millenium too (the X-Files phenomnenon). Interestingly, I saw a thread on the Sci-Fi forum complaining that nearly all the sci-fi tv series are being cancelled this year.

I certainly find that facinating. TV, Radio , Newspapers are all manipulated by the government. I think it's just the lead up to disclosure. Flood TV and Cinema with the topic for a couple of years before they break the news so that it is not much of a shock.

Perhaps with legislation and regulation they can manipulate, but only at a very crude level.

What would the mechanism be for this? As in, how exactly does the government get these things made?

And how would you distinguish this from a certain genre of film/entertainment becoming fashionable? (e.g. the fashion for epic movies of children's books such as Lord of the Rings * 3, The Hobbit * 2, Harry Potter * 8?, Chronicles of Narnia * 3, His Dark Materials, and Artemis Fowl (in development hell right now)).

I'm not saying that there's anything to the theory regarding Governments keeping secrets about ET life, but isn't it convenient for them that people now believe that any secrets which do exist will invariably be leaked?

I doubt everyone believes that, but I do think leaks are possibly more likely, or more likely to receive publicity now.

The majority of people dont even think outside the bubble so if secrets are kept or released i dont think it matters.

How about you show me a time when in one year 16 films came out all based on a similar topic. The only genre I can think of off the top of my head, where this would be possible is superheros. The reason I say that is because there are so many Superman, Batman , Spiderman etc but at no point in time that I can think of have 16 superhero movies been released in one year.

Also as I ponted out and is ponted out in the link to the list of the said 16 movies is the fact that leading up to this year there has been an influx in alien movies.

These movies are not all coming out in the same year - they are spread over 3 years (2010-2012). So about 5 per year. I'd say that's still a lot on the same area, but given the success of District 9 and Avatar, I can see why other companies are trying to cash in.

drdeadlift

Its just a slow news day.

WakeUp

Does seem to be a lot of ET movies on the way out for whatever reason, most of them tend to be sh!te though. Have to say Im looking forward to seeing Battle: Los Angeles its out here in March I think, one for the lads maybe dont think I'll bringing my gf with me:D Fight scenes and ET's look kinda slick and a couple of the marines in it are the same marines from Aliens I think (Hudson- no fcking way man:D) Dont usually watch ET movies but will go check this one out:)

hurry up aliens, i'm impatient for disclosure given it's been imminent for so long. somehow i feel i'll still be waiting for it in 10 years.

Fair point but District 9 was hardly a blockbuster and I don't think Avatar experienced the success it did based on it's story line but rather it was due to the 3D effects. I saw Avatar and most people I spoke to who saw it all said the same thing 'crap film, gerat effects though '

Only time will tell if there is any reason for all these films coming out but I'm certainly curious because it is odd.

How about the 1950's? Plenty of ET/alien/space movies there, particularly 1957-59, with smaller amounts in the preceding years. Did that lead up to disclosure that aliens are coming or did I miss that bit? Its just something that's popular right now, will probably burn itself out in a while, and the genre will return when there is either a fresh take on it or renewed interest. The cycle will continue.

Good shout there , I think there is plenty more than 16 there ! not sure what date Roswell supposedly happened but was that around that time or later ?

JBnaglfar

Yeah, the Roswell thing is late 40's so may have driven a popular cultural interest in aliens. I don't know that much about public reaction to it but it seems plausible enough. If people were fascinated by aliens, it would be an obvious area for Hollywood to cash in.

Forget about the vampire stuff for a second.It may well be that Hollywood are cashing in ,but this stuff is being carried by the mainstream news ,Im not gonna post a whole load of videos that will be pointless and no one looks at them.Just go to youtube and put in UFO -,ABC ,NBC ,CNN and you'll see what Im getting at.Why the coverage if it's bollocks! Im not saying I believe it but there is serious time and effort put into reporting this lately.

If this stuff was a direct conflict of government policy ,the media would not air it.

I posted jokingly previously about using the upcoming release of films with aliens in them as evidence of something ET going on. I used the example of the recent increase in pirate movies and the rise in reported global piracy, did johnny depp cause it?, coincidence?.

Alien movies (a very broad term) have been mainstream for over fifty years and as with every genre they run in cycles, as I stated before there has been a huge increase in vampire related movies, books & tv - should we prepare for a bloodsucker invasion?

Think of this also, with the rise in cgi the number of "alien movies" will increase.The reason is that making a believable cgi alien is far easier than making a believable human.

Also Avatar made so much money, the bandwagon for that will be huge.

If you consider the real amout of "alien movies" produced in a year would include direct to DVD, TV & non english language the amout would far exceed 16. You might as well link the rise in global cancer to the demise of silent movies.

I don't see anyone on CNN interviewing vampires ,but what I do see is an increase in UFO reporting by the heavyweight media giants.

I never mentioned news coverage, the point I am making is that cherry picking the release schedule of movies and calling that evidence is absurd.

To bring it back to vampires again ( I don't have a thing for them, honest) do a quick search and you will find news reports of people who claim to be vampires. Does this mean I will be stocking up on garlic?, not at the moment.

Now I am off to watch Twilight.

Before this thread goes off on a tangent, let me clarify when i said upcoming movies are absurd as evidence I was not saying that you had called it such. I was making the point that IMHO nobody can use it as evidence.

Now I will stop discussing vampires and then this thread can get back to its original point
