Their “arrivals” on our Earth have been photographed and captured on video multiple times. Moreover, American physicists believe that extraterrestrial civilizations may exchange information. According to researchers, aliens use beams of one type of elementary particle called neutrinos for communication instead of electromagnetic waves.
Thus, scientists explain the futility of humanity’s attempts to detect extraterrestrial signals using photons, efforts that have persisted for almost 50 years. The hypothesis of such a communication method with extraterrestrial civilizations was proposed by physicists from the University of Hawaii.
“We don’t hear the voices of extraterrestrial civilizations, despite decades of listening to interstellar radio broadcasts, simply because our ‘brothers in intelligence’ use neutrino beams instead of electromagnetic waves to transmit information,” states a paper titled “Galactic Neutrino Communication,” published in Cornell University’s electronic library.
Until now, all attempts to receive extraterrestrial signals were based on the idea that information transmission occurs via photons in radio or optical ranges. “We believe it would be more appropriate to search for possible signals transmitted using neutrinos,” says scientist John Learned. “Neutrinos are a type of elementary particle with an extremely small mass and incredibly high penetrating power,” explains Alexander Sinev, assistant professor of physics at Bauman University, to VZGLYAD newspaper.
He notes that the mass of neutrinos is essential for explaining the phenomenon of dark matter in cosmology, as despite their small mass, their concentration in the universe is quite high. However, according to the expert, very little is known about the possibility of transmitting information using these particles in the global scientific community.
American researchers argue that the high penetrating ability of neutrinos explains why UFOs may use these particles for communication. Electromagnetic waves can be delayed or scattered by interstellar gas and dust. Near the galaxy’s center, where their concentration is very high, using photons for communication may become impossible. In contrast, the galaxy is almost “transparent” to neutrinos.
The authors suggest that extraterrestrial civilizations may use neutrinos with higher energy than those emitted by stars for communication. This would virtually eliminate interference—high-energy neutrinos are rare, and signals transmitted using them would not be as affected by noise as in the electromagnetic spectrum.
It is worth noting that the search for extraterrestrial civilizations through listening to interstellar radio broadcasts has been ongoing worldwide since the 1960s. However, all attempts to detect an extraterrestrial signal have so far failed. Meanwhile, hundreds of cases have been documented where ordinary people have interacted with aliens in one way or another.
Last week, the UK Ministry of Defense began publishing documents related to UFOs. This move was prompted by citizens who flooded the department with requests for access to classified data under the Freedom of Information Act. It is expected that the entire archive of “secret materials” will be made public online over the next four years. However, ministry representatives have assured the public that the documents contain no authentic evidence of contact with aliens, reports MIGnews.
