Alien visitor

Hi Dharma, 

Hi Dharma, Thanks for posting about this. I'm assuming you are talking about this guy?    -- Here's an excerpt from an article about the post graduate fellow who spotted the object:  "The space rock followed a path like nothing he'd ever seen. Instead of circling around the "ecliptic" — the plane on which planets, asteroids, comets and other solar system objects orbit the sun — this new thing approached from above. It seemed to be coming from the direction of the constellation Lyra and had been cruising through the chilly void of interstellar space at nearly 16 miles a second...On Sept. 2, it crossed the elliptic plane inside Mercury's orbit. A week later, it made its closest approach to the sun. Tugged by the sun's gravity, it reversed course and hurtled back above the elliptic at an angle, passing about 15 million miles from Earth on Oct. 14. It is now headed for the constellation Pegasus."  

It feels "alive" to me. They've decided it is an asteroid but they don't sound convinced.

Hey Zoron, what do you think? 

Hi Jeanne,

I am aware of this object, and am tracking it, re online reports. The trajectory is very interesting. It is the first confirmed interstellar object to be seen crossing the Solar System. (others have, we just did not get a look). The close flyby of the Sun is fascinating. The speed is about what you would expect, from a natural object, subject to the Gravity pull of the Sun. It has performed a "Slingshot" manoeuvre, whereby it gains speed, and is ejected from the Solar system, at escape velocity. It has not shown that it is under propulsion. So my view is that it is a rock. But the mass, at 400 tonnes, is faily low, and yet it was reflecting enough light to be seen from Earth, by an amateur astronomer. So just possibly, a flying hulk, low density, high volume, lots of reflectivde surface. but this would also fit a large lump of flying ice. But, no contrail of boiling off gas, like a comet. So intriguing. But I would plump for "Rock". When it Earth flyby's, (60 moon distances from Earth), a lot of amateur sky watchers are going to be tracking it. Some have pro gear. Be sure, if anything is unusual, it will be spotted. But, fascinating. 

This might just be a personal expression but last night I had a vivid dream about a global problem with an alien craft, looking dark and spikey/spidery that was 'cloaked' and taking people away.

My awake intuition tells me that we will at some point become consciously aware of life besides our own terran species. Also, separately, that the Earth's population is going to be quite drastically reduced within my lifetime (I'm 43 now).

I also have felt quite strongly that we have been prepared for this meeting through stories. From fairytales, myths and legends to today's incredibly direct and graphic science-fiction, having these ideas in our mass-consciousness will lessen the shock when it does, eventually, happen.

Zoron, Thanks for such an informed answer. 

I posted this in the predictions page, I thought it might be a hit :D  

NASA makes great discovery. (Bill)” for October – is this maybe the meteor from another galaxy that was spotted? https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/speaking-of-science/wp/2017/10/27/a-space-rock-from-another-star-is-spotted-in-our-solar-system-a-cosmic-first/?utm_term=.b9d9d577a72f

Yes, Diana, Thank you!  I will let Bill know too.  He's from the local predictions group and tends to see these kinds of things. 

This is from Zoron - there was a duplicate topic with duplicate posts which I deleted (because they were duplicates),  except for this one which was not a duplicate from Zoron. So I'm posting it here:  

Regarding the extra solar long thin object, as far as we know, it is not artificial, just a very odd and unusual external intruder into the solar system. 

But it does raise an issue. it was picked up several months ago, when it was a lot further out, and our space lookout systems are very good now. if that is the case, then the deep space system, that scans for asteroids, is likely to have picked up real alien intrusions. So yet another example of the powers that be telling lies to us. They are out there. within the Earths atmosphere, there have been occasional sightings of very large ships, and we are talking here of ships the size of American aircraft carriers. Yet another example of something that is simply not talked about. I hope that this puts it in context. FYI, the very large radio telescope in Porto rico was used to do a very large scan of several terahertz of wave bands, over several hours, of the object. Nothing detected. Zilch. It seems to be a rock. 

Reikiblossom, what do you mean by our population is going to be reduced in your life time? Sorry I know it's an older post but I am curious and this post caught my attention. Is the population going to start dying off  in large or start spreading out into space? If anyone could answer this it would be appreciated. 

I've seen articles that say people are having fewer kids, including millennials, Americans, the Japanese, the British, and others. Could this be a reason for a possible population reduction in the future?
