Pulse detection
British astronomer Jocelyn Bell Burnell was the first person to discover a pulsar in 1967 when she spotted a radio pulsar.
Since then, other types of pulses have been seen that emit x-rays and gamma rays.
Pulsars are essentially rotating, strongly magnetized neutron stars, but when they were first discovered, it was believed that they could come from aliens.
“Look!” radiosein
In 1977, an astronomer searching for alien life in the near sky above Ohio noticed a powerful radio signal that was so strong that he excitedly exclaimed, “Wow!” Wrote. next to his data.

The 72-second explosion, seen by Dr. Jerry Ehman through a radio telescope, comes from Sagittarius, but does not match any known celestial object.
Conspiracy theorists have since claimed that the ‘Wow! signal ‘, which was 30 times stronger than background radiation, was a message from intelligent extraterrestrials.
Fossilized Mars microbes
In 1996, Nasa and the White House made the explosive announcement that the rock contained traces of Mars bugs.
The meteorite, classified as Allen Hills (ALH) 84001, crashed on the frozen waste of Antarctica 13,000 years ago and was recovered in 1984.
Photos have been released showing elongated segmented objects that look remarkably lifelike.

However, the excitement did not last long. Other scientists questioned whether the meteorite samples were contaminated.
They also argued that heat generated when the rock was blown into space could potentially create mineral structures that could be mistaken for microfossils.
Behavior of Tabby’s Star in 2005
The star, also known as KIC 8462852, is 1400 light-years away and has astonished astonists since it was discovered in 2015.
It fades much faster than other stars, which according to experts is a sign of aliens using the energy of a star.

Recent studies have ‘eliminated the possibility of a foreign megastructure’, suggesting that a dust ring may be causing the strange signals.
Exoplanets in the Goldilocks Zone in 2015
In February this year, astronomers announced that they had spotted a galaxy with planets that could support life only 39 light-years away.
Seven terrestrial planets have been discovered orbiting the nearby dwarf star ‘Trappist-1’, and all may have water on the surface, one of the most important components of life.
Three of the planets have such good conditions that scientists say that life may have evolved on them.
Scientists claim that within a decade they will know if there is life on one of the planets, and said that this is just the beginning.
