(ORDO NEWS) — An asteroid that recently flew near the Earth looks like ‘Oumuamua – a mysterious “interstellar” object, which some serious scientists consider the messenger of an extraterrestrial civilization
“Looks like it, very similar,” the astronomers reacted this way, looking at the asteroid 2011 AG5, which they recently took pictures of.
The asteroid was captured from a distance of almost 2 million kilometers – in early February 2023, it flew past the Earth.
Several images were obtained using the 70-meter antenna of the Goldstone Solar System Radar in Southern California.
NASA experts first of all drew attention to the elongated shape of this 2011 AG5 – completely uncharacteristic of asteroids. It is cigar-shaped, the length (about 600 meters) is five times the diameter.
This gave reason to compare it with that giant “cigar” that flew into the solar system in October 2017.
‘Oumuamua or “Messenger Who Arrived First from afar” in the literal translation from the Hawaiian – so, in the end, she was called.
The trajectory of the object stretched to other worlds – either to the constellation Virgo, or the Unicorn, or the Whale.
The “newcomer” was so amazing with its oddities that some quite serious scientists, summing them up, saw signs of intelligent intervention in Oumuamua.
The “Asteroid” was abnormally bright – it shone like a metal, had a complex-shaped surface, and most importantly, periodically accelerated – as if someone controlled it.
Professor Abraham (Avi) Loeb (Professor Abraham Loeb) of the Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics), a member of the US Presidential Council on Science and Technology and the “leader” of enthusiasts who defend the version that ‘Oumuamua equipped some alien civilization, even wrote a book based on their arguments: “Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth” (Interstellar: the first evidence of intelligent life outside the Earth).
And now 2011 AG5. The fact that an interstellar asteroid cannot be argued is that it revolves around the Sun, making one revolution in 621 days.
But it’s not a fact that the object is local. Where and when it started, how long ago it arrived, is unknown – it was discovered only in January 2011. It is classified as an asteroid.
Astronomers estimated the guest’s orbit and were very frightened – from the data available at that time it followed that in 2040, during the next approach, he might not fly past.
The chances of crashing into the Earth are 1 in 625 – that is, a cataclysm is very likely. There is little hope that it will carry on.
In 2012, the orbit was rechecked and it turned out that the fears were unfounded – a collision was ruled out.
As NASA experts now assure, in 2040 2011 AG5 will fly by at a distance of 1.1 million kilometers.
How to understand the “clarification” is not entirely clear – whether the mathematicians were mistaken, or the object changed the trajectory, deliberately minimizing the risk of a collision.
What today will certainly add optimism to enthusiasts who believe in aliens: the object is both elongated and maneuvers. It seems to be.
Loeb’s like-minded hypothesis: ‘Oumuamua and 2011 AG5 are reconnaissance alien probes. Most likely automatic. One – through = – Oumuamua. We just met him along the way.
Another probe – 2011 AG5 – has already been deliberately sent to the solar system.
I reached and went into orbit around the Sun – so as to “see” the most attractive planets from the point of view of the possibility of life.
And the orbit of 2011 AG5 is just such that Venus, Earth and Mars, located in the so-called habitable zone, regularly fall into its field of view.
We, for example, are looking for just such in distant and nearby stars. So far, however, with the help of teleskoov.
By the way, NASA does not reject the idea of checking how ‘Oumuamua is man-made. According to the existing project Lyra (Project Lyra), it is supposed to set off in pursuit.
The object, which is now approaching Pluto, seems to be really possible to catch up. Thanks to Jupiter. That is, due to the so-called gravitational maneuver (Jupiter Oberth maneuver).
The giant planet, as if from a sling, will “shoot” the pursuer, who will also turn on his engines at full power.
You just need to choose the right moment to properly accelerate, while saving fuel. A speed of about 150 thousand kilometers per hour is enough.
A favorable window to start will open in 2028. In 26 years, the earth apparatus will overtake Oumuamua. Take a picture of it and send us the cards.
Already at the speed of light. That is, fast. Thus, if NASA supports the project of enthusiasts, then the mystery of the “first alien probe”, which still haunts scientists, will be revealed in 2056.
The mystery of the “second alien probe” – 2011 AG5 – can be solved even faster.
After all, it seems that he is not going to leave the solar system yet, and he regularly appears near the Earth. It would be wise to send a mission to the “asteroid”. Not fantasy tea.
And at this time
Time of the first, second and third
‘Oumuamua is the first alien probe discovered by mankind (well, let’s assume so) – not the first sent by an extraterrestrial civilization. Or at least the second one.
The first one was most likely what we believe to be the second – the 2011 AG5.
How such a misunderstanding could have happened was recently clarified by Graeme Smith, a professor in the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics at the University of California.
He presented his arguments in the International Journal of Astrobiology in the article “On the first probe to transit between two interstellar civilizations”.
According to the professor, a civilization that is looking for brothers in mind first sends out automatic reconnaissance probes throughout the Universe. And the new ones are better than the old ones.
And if so, then it may well be that the next “envoy” will be technically more advanced than the previous one. And overtake on the road the one that was sent earlier.
Apparently, 2011 AG5 – the second probe discovered by us – nevertheless arrived first and began systematic research in the solar system.
We only noticed it after Oumuamua, who took off earlier, but was less perfect and just rushed past.
Perhaps there is some cunning third probe hiding somewhere. Or the probes that overtook the two identified and arrived at the Earth in ancient times.
The professor does not exclude that the UFOs that accompany people throughout history are somehow connected with them.
As well as the “Unidentified Aerial Phenomena” (Unidentified Aerial Phenomena – UAP), which the Americans cannot figure out in any way.
And someone believes that the aliens themselves are already here – in their own person.
Well, if you listen to Smith’s arguments, then the aliens ended up on Earth (or on the Moon, or somewhere else nearby) much earlier than all automatic devices. Watching for now.
