Are aliens sending signals from outer space?
Mysterious radio signals that were discovered in 2007 are thought by many to be alien signals.
There are 2000 of these fast radio bursts (FRBs) that reach the Earth every day.
Up to now nobody really knows what they are but many say a neutron star could also be the culprit.

Re: Are aliens sending signals from outer space?
Very interesting that these signals were only discovered in 2007.
We are not alone in the universe and I am surprised that we have not picked up any proof of alien signals so far.
Maybe these fast radio bursts are a clue to other life in outer space or not but maybe they are not.
If we haven't managed to work out what these signals are so far then I think they are from fast revolving dead stars or similar.
It could well be that the signals that are coming our way are either difficult to decipher or even detect because of their complexity.
It may well be that aliens communicate in other ways other that radio signals and we are not that advanced to be able to pick their system up yet.

This is very true.Freeman John wrote: It could well be that the signals that are coming our way are either difficult to decipher or even detect because of their complexity.
I made a post here which shows that Norway is switching off its FM transmitters this year.
They are doing this to go all digital DAB.
So, after just 50 or 60 years our technology has moved on.
Re: Are aliens sending signals from outer space?
Radio signals go on forever so if you read this post you will see that any aliens who are looking for signals might miss some of ours.
FM radio looks like it has reached the end of its life so aliens will have about a 60 year time frame to catch any of ours on those frequencies.
In terms of the universe that sort of time is very small.
Say for instance the world destroys itself within say another 100 or 200 years then even that may not be enough for our signals to be caught by another species in outer space.
I certainly think we will be able to find some signals from intelligent life at some time or another but we would have to survive as a race ourselves for another few thousand years or so. Possibly a few hundred thousand years and that is unlikely.

I am free and they will not tell me otherwise

Give me back the pirate radio stations on MW and LW

Keep the bastards honest.
Re: Are aliens sending signals from outer space?
Of course aliens are sending signals out but it's going to be like finding a needle in a haystack.
Re: Are aliens sending signals from outer space?
Whatever technology the aliens are using to send signals around the universe, obviously we are not advanced enough to see them.
Re: Are aliens sending signals from outer space?
Without doubt there will be interstellar signals going on but we are just so primitive we can't join in yet.
The answer is in front of our noses but we just can't see it yet.

Somehow I doubt those days will come back but I used to love Radio Caroline and a few others.Tanner wrote:Give me back the pirate radio stations on MW and LW
I would fall asleep to them.
