A well-known Harvard physicist has a brave theory – a celestial object that swept through our solar system in 2017 was actually not from our galaxy … but from another, perhaps light-years away.
Avi Loeb – of which the new book, “Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth”, goes more into its hypothesis – came on “TMZ Live” on Tuesday to explain why a massive, slippery unidentified piece of debris hit our road in 2017 crossed. may have been different worlds.
Look at that … Avi says when it was studied by physicists and other scientists at the time, it had nothing of a typical asteroid or meteor that we would see from a distant star in the Milky Way. On the contrary, he explains that it was actually driven by an unknown source, and it seems to him (anyway) that it penetrated through a distant place.
The chairman of the Harvard Astronomy Dept. goes on to explain how he and his contemporaries think the object struck … it is a technology that is beyond our ability at this point, but one that can describe how the 100-yard entity moved how it did. Think of the “Star Wars” space … and now add light to the mix. This is about what Avi believes happened here.
What exactly can it be … Avi’s said it could be nothing but space junk. But whose garbage is the most important question. In his eyes, it’s not ours … that’s extraordinary.
BTW … he also said that it is super arrogant of earthlings to think that they are the only life form in the whole universe.
