Calling Our Alien Neighbors With Neutrinos
For years, SETI researchers have kept their eyes and ears trained upward in the hopes of intercepting radio signals from alien civilizations. However, a new report from researchers at the University of Hawaii states we might be tuning in to the wrong channels.
The report, which you can read here, theorizes that intergalactic communication could be best facilitated through the use of Galactic Neutrino Communication (GNC). Neutrinos are elementary particles that can travel near the speed of light, making them ideal couriers for interstellar message delivery. The GNC would encode messages in oscillations within the neutrino transmission.
Jackie Jokiesowitz and her husband Earl have been employing this method for years from their mountain laboratory. They’ve received over a dozen transmissions, but up until now they have been ridiculed and ostracized by the larger scientific community because of some of their more controversial stances on SETI related topics. In particular, the Jokiesowitz’s are firm believers in the Ancient Astronaut hypothesis popularized by Erich Von Daniken in his book Chariots of the Gods
The Jokiesowitzs’ plan on releasing the findings of their Galatic Neutrino Communication experiment soon. According to Jackie Jokiesowitz, “The transmissions we’ve received will shake our current understanding of our place in the universe.” Until the findings are released, the jury will remain out.
