“Earth is being bombarded by debris from alien spaceships”

Harvard physicist Abraham Loeb is not the only known scientist who believes that interstellar asteroids are possibly a̳l̳i̳e̳n̳ spacecraft or the remains of spacecraft that have been destroyed or abandoned.

Scientist BPEmbaid, a physicist at the Universidad Central de Venezuela, has published a new study in which he argues that the reason many meteorites contain the same metals that Earth scientists have produced in laboratories is because they are of natural origin.

That is, these metals could be the technology signatures that SETI astronomers use to look for signs of ex̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ technology on exoplanets and around other stars.

In his paper, “The enigma of jadeite and brezinaite meteoritic minerals,” which was published in the arXiv scientific archive, BP Embaid, a research professor in condensed matter physics with experience in high-precision analytical techniques to study minerals, geology samples and alloys , applies his analytical techniques to two meteorites found in India in 1852 and in Yemen in 1980.

“The genesis of these meteoritic minerals may require a controlled and sophisticated process that is not easily found in nature.”

“Therefore, it is important to be open-minded and even provocative to consider the following question: Are these meteoritic minerals samples of ex̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ technosignatures?” explains Professor Embaid.

“The aforementioned synthesized sulfides do not occur naturally on Earth and were detected as minerals in meteorites years after the first synthesis.

FeTi2S4 was first synthesized in 1968 and then detected in 1974 as the mineral jadeite in the Bustee meteorite and in 1995 in the Kaidun meteorite.

The Cr3S4 backbone was first synthesized in 1957 and later detected in 1969 as the mineral brezinaite, present in the Tucson meteorite.”

In 1957, scientists searching for new electrically conductive metals combined chromium and sulfur in layers to synthesize brezinaite, a metal that does not exist in nature… at least on Earth.

In a similar process, other scientists created jadeite. Both can act as superconductors, allowing electricity to flow through them without resistance, a feature that was becoming important when the first computer chips were being designed.

To the surprise of scientists, astronomers studying meteorites found one that had fallen in Tucson, Arizona, in 1850 and contained Brezinaite.

Within a few years they found the synthetic mineral in other meteorites and then had the same experience finding meteorites containing superconducting jadeite.

The existence of these metals in meteorites intrigued Professor Embaid because their creation in the laboratory required processes that were not easily duplicated in nature.

“Although, of course, it is possible that there are processes not yet understood that can lead to the formation of these minerals, however, we can advance the possible new interpretation in the recently emerging field: technosignatures”, emphasizes the professor. Embassy.

If a mineral occurs naturally on Earth, that makes it part of the planet\’s biosignature. If a mineral or product is manufactured, that makes it part of our technology signature.

Since jadeite and brezinaite only exist in terrestrial laboratories, this puts them in our technological signature, and any ex̳t̳r̳a̳t̳e̳r̳r̳e̳s̳t̳r̳i̳a̳l̳ c̳i̳v̳i̳l̳i̳z̳a̳t̳i̳o̳n̳ that looks for life around other stars looking for technological signatures could detect their signals.

Professor Embaid speculates the following: what if jadeite and brezinaite cannot occur in nature? That means other c̳i̳v̳i̳l̳i̳z̳a̳t̳i̳o̳n̳s are doing it too.

If that is the case, how did they get into the many meteorites that contain them?”

abandoned technology
Another more familiar term for this discovery is “abandoned technology”: equipment that is obsolete or scrapped after a prototype is built.

According to the online magazine The Daily Beast, Professor Embaid uses “abandoned technology” to describe the remains of long-missing spacecraft or probes.

An example might be a probe sent to another planetary system that has lost power due to a malfunction, a collision with a space rock, or normal, abnormal, or unforeseen wear and tear.

It can also refer to a spacecraft, with a living or robotic crew, that suffered the same fate and ended up splitting apart.

If any of these “abandoned technologies” passed close enough to Earth, or were on a collision course with the planet, they could easily fall to the surface as meteorites.
