Laser-like signal coming from Gliese 581e???
I don't know how you GLP'ers missed this one. And if this has been posted before, then "a-duh"...

I was just strolling through Wikipedia, you know, looking up the awesome solar system of Gliese 581, and I almost fell off my chair when I saw this:


"Astrophysicist Ragbir Bhathal at the University of Western Sydney discovered a "suspicious" laser-like signal coming from the coordinates of Gliese 581 e during a SETI sweep. Bhathal is still investigating the signal and scanning the coordinates for a repeat detection."


[link to en.wikipedia.org]


Hey, I'm not one to get too excited on this one (even though I am itching for disclosure or a landing), but this could be something, no???

Unless we get laser-like signals coming from other stars and star systems...

I don't know... I'm not going to lie, I think I am rather excited about this... Even though we won't be able to go over there and say what's up, I'm still pretty stoked.

And this is during a SETI sweep???

This is from Wikipedia... Not the Weekly World News or that other one that said they found an angel carving on the moon. This is a reputable source and citated...

Here's the citation as well:

that should be followed closely.
____________________________________________________

Sure the people who have recorded Planet X Nibiru with the new infra red telescope on the South Pole, know also the entire story about Gliese and the like habitable planets. It is not a coincidence to discover a third planet within the possible habitable zone in the same system (the habitable zone is constantly fixed, not 100% sure).

They know where to search for! I wouldn't be surprised if they have collected a lot of signals, and keep them secret. The way they keep UFO files secret. One may say - they have discovered most of that years ago, even decades ago, and now give us pieces, because now the time of the official first contacts has arrived.

Dr. Kaku already declared - within a year the ETs would be discovered! Of course Dr Michio Kaku is not just a crazy professor or someone who has no other things to do but to post youtube videos. He plays according to these same rules!

This is actually not a bad candidate.

And finding a technologically advanced civilisation only 20 lightyears away would mean that those are very common.

Maybe the Rare Earthers are right but Earth itself is the odd one out, life on planets orbiting red dwarfs being far more likely.
Red dwarfs are far more common then sun-like stars.
And they last forever.

Time to give that star a proper name of its own.

Re: Laser-like signal coming from Gliese 581e???
Gliese 581 e (pronounced /ˈɡliːzə/) or Gl 581 e is the fourth extrasolar planet found around Gliese 581, an M3V red dwarf star approximately 20.5 light-years away from Earth in the constellation of Libra.

The planet was discovered by an Observatory of Geneva team lead by Michel Mayor, using the HARPS instrument on the European Southern Observatory 3.6 m (140 in) telescope in La Silla, Chile. The discovery was announced on 21 April 2009. Mayor's team employed the radial velocity technique, in which the orbit size and mass of a planet are determined based on the small perturbations it induces in its parent star's orbit via gravity.[1]

At a minimum of 1.9 Earth masses, it is the smallest extrasolar planet discovered around a normal star, and the closest in mass to Earth. At an orbital distance of just 0.03 AU from its parent star, however, it orbits further in than the habitable zone. It is unlikely to possess an atmosphere due to its high temperature and strong radiation from the star. Although scientists think it probably has a rocky surface similar to Earth, it is also likely to experience intense tidal heating similar to (and likely more intense than) that affecting Jupiter's moon Io.[2] Gliese 581e completes an orbit of its sun in approximately 3.15 days.[1][3][4]

Seriously.. read it. I'm not seeing anything about a "suspicious laser-like signal.." scratching

However I did find the same post pretty much word for word at ATS.. If it were actually posted at Wiki I'd take the laser thing a little more seriously.

Sorry OPIE you're -->|<-- this close to a BS-Flag.

More about the same signal:

Very unusual and interesting SETI signal received

[link to www.space.com]

I got curious about how many laser like signals have been detected in the past. This might be the only one, but the person who discovered it sounds like he is not sure if it is a glitch or not.

I got an idea, why not send a laser signal back to the location the signal originated at? If we receive another one after that, it might be safe to say we have detected intelligent life.

He gave a link to a news source as well. The article is still there:

Here's another. You need to search the name of the scientist to get a decent search return. :)

Here's an interview with him from last January, as of the time of the interview they had not relocated the signal that was initially found (or so they say!) after trying to locate it for a year.
