The Wow! Signal

-

We are not alone in this vast universe and there are many theories for existence of Extraterrestrial(Alien) Life. SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) is an institute with a mission to find life outside earth in this dark universe.

Jerry R. Ehman who worked under the SETI Project, picked up an unexpected radio frequency supposedly coming from deep space. He was able to get a 72-second signal from the constellation Sagittarius and was never able to get it again. It derived its name, however, from the “wow!” that Jerry wrote in the margin of the printout.


Do you believe that extraterrestrial life exists?
I am always curious to know about the reason behind the existence of anything.

The Ekpyrotic Universe Theory suggests that, unlike the Big Bang that began from singularity, our universe is one of a pair of universes that collided.  It is an alternative to the widely accepted Big Bang theory . This collision resets the universe. From there, it expands for billions of light year until it contracts back to the Big Crunch . The speed and energy of that reduction creates another massive collision and the universe is reborn. and this continues for infinity. And the Mind-Blowing Fact is that if the ekpyrotic scenario is correct, our twin universe is right next to us in another dimension, separated by a distance less than the diameter of an atom. That’s close, even for siblings!

The Sixth Mass Extinction

There have been mass extinctions in the past, and we’re probably in one now. All the previous mass extinctions were due to ice age, volcanic eruptions, asteroid impacts, greenhouse gases, etc. But we are about to face another mass extinction. It may occur due to the human activities. But research says, every time there is a mass extinction, the most powerful and dominating species becomes extinct. In one of the past event, Dinosaurs were dominating and became extinct. We all know, humans are dominating the planet now, and the chances of our extinction are high unless we are prepared for it.
