A new (alien?) signal designated Breakthrough Listen Candidate One (BLC-1) appears to have originated from Proxima Centauri, the closest star to our solar system. It's already being compared to the famous WOW! signal of 1977, but it's very likely not really coming from Proxima, or even from beyond our solar system. But, it could nevertheless be a significant milestone in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence, or SETI. 00:00 Start 02:26 Ad 03:32 Proxima Centauri system 05:17 Parkes observations 06:16 How sources are determined 07:32 Satellites and orbits 10:22 Signal characteristics and airports? 12:40 Confirmation with future telescopes 14:34 An interstellar communications network? 15:40 Next steps and expected results 16:03 Telescopes on the Moon 16:25 Thanks and Patreon and Subscribe! 🔔 Subscribe for more: https://www.youtube.com/christianread... 🖖 Share this video with a fellow space traveler: • Did we really detect a signal from Proxima... 🔴 Watch my most recent upload: https://goo.gl/QbRcE2 🚀 Help me improve the channel by joining the community on Patreon / launchpadastro 🚀 Check out Launch Pad merchandise! https://teespring.com/stores/launchpa...
