TOP 5 the most interesting discoveries about... aliens

I must admit that I have been fascinated by universe for as long as I can remember: this unimaginable space, so many uncertainties, the multitude of... everything. I still cannot help but wonder how much we know about space, even though we are watching it from here, and, at the same time, how little we know... I can read about the universe endlessly (even if some things are difficult to understand for me). That’s why today I want to share some discoveries about UFO in 2020. 

1. To begin with, my favourite one, because it arouses controversy and fires the imagination: the global conspiracy. At the end of 2020, Haim Eshed (a Turkish professor) announced to the whole world the existence of a secret collaboration between his country (Israel) together with the United States and aliens which allegedly belong to the “Galactic Federation”. The 87-year-old scientist said he had nothing left to lose, so he would share this information. Are these just an old man’s fantasy and a way of drawing attention to himself, or is it worth bowing down to this case after all?

2. While on the subject of UFO, it is also worth mentioning the declassified videos (with aliens, of course) recorded by US Navy aircrew in the past few years. But the Pentagon says that they don’t show UFO at all (to end the endless speculation on this subject). Unidentified flying objects are visible in three blurred videos. Many times it is said that such objects are simply drones. But... are they really?

3. An intriguing radio signal from the nearest star to our Sun! That sounds really exciting and caused quite a stir last year. Its “author” is unknown, but, according to one saying, “it’s never aliens, until it is”. The signal (which got a name Breakthrough Listen Candidate 1, BLC1) was caught by a radiotelescope in Australia and it’s still being investigated. 

4. Moving on, let’s talk about 1000 potential places in the universe where life could exist. Scientists who specialise in the search for extraterrestrial life say that there is a possibility that we - Earthlings - are already under constant observation by aliens. The two professors, Lisa Kaltenegger and Josh Pepper have identified 1004 stars which are similar to the Sun and around which Eart-like exoplanets may orbit (including those suitable for life). These planets are no more than 300 light years from Earth, which means a very small distance on a cosmic scale. 

5. Last but not least, I want to share one more possibility related to UFO… the saddest one. We have to take into consideration an option that the aliens are simply long dead. Every civilization has its over, sooner or later, so we must assume that it is possible that all other civilisations have already gone. The mathematical calculations on the probability suggest that the biggest probability of the appearance of intelligent life in the Milky Way galaxy occurred about 5.5 billion years ago... Are we too late?

I don’t know if we ever will know the truth about this: aliens. But it is worth trying, searching, reading, finding out and learning, for the rest of our lives.
