  • 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.

      @-oysterthief4444 11 місяців тому +60

      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.

      @spacedaze1860 11 місяців тому +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.

      I agree...the more attention he gets (which he seems to just love) the more desperate & ridiculous his claims & theories will get...coinciding with credible professors & institutions distancing themselves from him.
