How could an advanced civilization make its presence knwn it the galaxy. According to New Scientist it could ”make the planets in its star system dance in mathematical sequence.”
When humans search for life, they have been
looking for radio signals or even megastructures around stars but the results of
these have been ambiguous and have potential natural explanations.
What would be the best way for an advanced alien civilisation to make its presence known across the galaxy? It might be to make
the planets in its star system dance in mathematical sequence.
Now, why Sean Raymond at the University of
Bordeaux, France, and his colleagus see the result of can be ambiguous and have potential natural
explanations orbiting in specific patterns that could have only arisen
artificially.
Their idea is that advanced civilization could alter
the orbits of planets. When thousands of years pass, it produces planets that are orbiting in specific
patterns that could have only arisen artificially.
