It's a little more nefarious than "sensationalism", as Avi Loeb is part of a larger psychological operation centered out of the state of Israel, in conjunction with CIA. These types of "sensational" UFO media blasts are about psychologically priming the public masses, for the ultimate goal to instigate an "outside universal threat" (to quote Ronald Reagan's 1987 speech to the UN) that creates a need for trillions of tax payer funds towards developing a larger "space force", in which the Military Industrial Complex will benefit...

I’m published in the field of micrometeorites. You have to be so careful with “small round metallic objects”. For instance we were looking for micrometeorites in 3 billion years old cherts. To crack open the Chert we used a technique that use high voltage to smash the rock into dust. We started finding thousands of them, then we realised it was small metal droplets from the anode and cathode we were finding. We changed our technique to good old fashioned acid and we started finding real meteorites.

Avi released Mass Spec data on the sphereules. It's in the arXiv paper. They only released data on Iron (Fe), but the results put them WAY out of the isotopic ratios for Terrestrial Iron. So that rules out coal ash, welding cherries, battleship armor, and all the other but-wattabout counterarguments from Earthside. The Fe isotope ratios ARE within the range of meteorites from within our Solar system. But as you and Avi pointed out, some of this can be affected by vapor phase fractionation during atmospheric entry. That same atmospheric entry heating would probably make any Oxygen mass spectrometry useless, for pretty obvious atmospheric composition reasons. But what WOULD be very interesting is mass spectrum of the Uranium isotopes. These would be far less affected by thermal fractionation, and due to their decay rates, could peg these sphereules as extra-solar. But no test would ever be able to prove if it was a techno artifact after being airburst and melted into millimeter sized sphereules.

Yes, why not do some very complicated and elaborate research nobody knows how to and that will take perhaps even decades to get any meaningful results on some rocks nobody cares about. That's how you ruin a scientific career. I'd love to see that research proposal though: "I want 3 PhD students and some money to buy a bunch of Uranium and recreate a meteor and nuclear waste products to see how long something was underwater to prove someone wrong, or right. IDK. I guess 10 nukes should be good enough to test a couple of variants". I mean it would take at least as long as those rocks were in the water, wouldn't it?

The truth can be established using special open source exploration methods (TEXT MINING). 🕳🕳🕳🕳🕳🕳🕳🕳Popular presenter Tucker Carson talked about UFOs, he referred to the publication of the American newspaper The Wall Street Journal (12.07.22), where the article Putin and UFO sightings was published (authors Holman W., Jenkins Jr.) - there was a topic discussed: if this is a secret military equipment, then who produces "flying saucers" - the United States or Russia? This is not surprising, because modern electrokinetic "flying saucers" are a clever secret technology, but all within the framework of ordinary physics! I will also clarify one important point. "Flying saucers" and devices known as "dark triangles" are a technique invented on Earth. There, the railguns are reduced to the size of a ballpoint pen rod - they are quite miniature. They are assembled into flat panels that resemble plasma panels of conventional televisions with a cellular structure, and the current supply scheme to the arresters is similar. The distance between the contacts is negligible - an ordinary spark of an electric discharge becomes a bridge between them (sometimes rail sensors are made coaxial - similar to direct-flow reactive ones). All cells work synchronously: they emit plasma streams - sparks of electrical discharges accelerated by induction force. The speed of the outgoing plasma is enormous, and the number of railguns assembled on the panel reaches hundreds of thousands. The total motor impulse in the end turns out to be impressive. The discharges follow with a frequency of megahertz, each pulse enters the air, which, in turn, twists into toroidal rings. That's how this secret technique flies. They are made in the USA, Russia, and China. It's time to declassify! 🐻🐼

@luipaardprint 5 ай бұрын

It’s actually surprisingly difficult to get perfect spheres by dropping molten metal into water. I tried this a few times with silver for some jewellery, and even getting something somewhat blob liked requires a layer of oil on top of the water. But maybe the height makes a difference.

@coffeeshangarworkshop8051 5 ай бұрын

@@luipaardprint yeah, it's the height that makes the difference, the molten sphere has to cool down most of the way in the air and solidify before impact, the water just finishes the cooling process and keeps it from splatting into hard ground and deforming on impact.

One thing slightly overlooked is: Would "advanced alien civilizations" use alloys? Humans use alloys because we can't make anything better. If you have advanced tech and want something strong, durable, and heat-resistant, you'd use a molecular lattice similar to diamond (carbon) or sapphire (aluminium oxide). Basically, light atoms with very high bond strength. Need something more flexible? Build it into the molecular structure using nanoscale molecular engineering - nantoechnology, basically. Once you have that technology it becomes the easiest way to make anything and alloys are not required.

I was so beyond hyped when Oumuamua passed by, especially given its resemblance to the probe in the Arthur C. Clark novel Rendezvous with Rama. However, ever since Avi Loeb has gotten his name attached to it, it's lost a lot of credibility in my opinion. Tantalizing, yes, but unless someone builds a high powered probe that will catch up with the object and observe it directly, I'm no longer gonna play the 'what if' game. Also, everyone has talked about how after Oumuamua swung around the sun, there was a slight acceleration, but nowhere has it been mentioned just how much acceleration, so far as I've seen. That would tell me something if we had some actual numbers to look at.

IMO it is possible that Oumuamua is an alien spaceship. That drawing of a rock is imagination. There are no pictures from it taken close-by. And even it could have an external rock-layer. Would be ideal armour for the spaceship against the dangers of the universe. If the alien civilization were parking their spaceship for a while in a dense gas cloud, it will be soon covered with rocky material because its own gravity will attract a lot of the dust particles close by. Once a sufficient thick layer they can put a crew in it and go. The rocky layer protects them from (micro) meteorites, radiation and sudden temperature changes. The tumbling is a method to keep some gravity inside it. If it does not have to be launched from a planet anymore, the mass of that spaceship is an advantage if they use gravity slingshots to speed up and change direction (just like our own space probes do).

So lets scale that rate up 14 billion years and countless potential civilizations that have lived and died all throwing untold amounts of trash into interstellar space. Now take into account that stars move around and all that trash will eventually evenly diffuse across the galaxy. Why wouldnt we expect alien trash to burn up in our atmosphere?

Despite the technological marvels involved in sending these things into space, some still managed to crash or lose contact for various reasons.

As usual excellent and exquisite analysis scrupulously demonstrating scientific objectivity. Anton definitely sets the standard for an objective scientific approach. On a side note it's worth noting that the Marshalls, overall, are perfectly safe today, with respect to the residual materials from those nuclear tests. The background radiation levels are well within all current acceptable standards for background radiation and radioactive fallout. There is one waste repository of interest which contains still dangerous waste materials in an entombment. Even if it were exposed to sea water, which is not considered an immediate threat based on very recent studies, it would result in no substantially dangerous wide area contamination though immediate areas might present moderate environmental problems and its immediate location would be dangerous (my primary source is studies cited in a U.S. Senate hearing in 2020). Because the entombment contains weapons program materials it will likely remain locally problematic from some time, but for the immediate future the entombment integrity seems reliable. Effectively this local site amounts to a crudely, but effectively, entombed HLWI site. When listening to the description of the study's collection methods I couldn't help but imagine the impacts to the immediate sea floor environments sampled. Although the overall area was probably too small to cause substantial negative ecological impacts the fact is we know very little about deep sea ecosystems. I wonder if the team did any kind of EIS?
