Avi Loeb - Földönkívüli - Egy idegen civilizáció first nyomai

One of Harvard's top astronomers presents his controversial theory that our solar system was recently visited by an advanced extraterrestrial civilization living in a distant star system.

In late 2017, researchers at a Hawaiian observatory spotted an object speeding through the interior of our solar system so fast that it could only have come from another star. Avi Loeb, head of Harvard's astronomy department, proves that the phenomenon named 'Oumuamua could not have been an asteroid; it was moving too fast for that, on too strange an orbit, and showed no signs of gas formation or disintegration. According to him, only one possible explanation can be imagined: the object is an advanced technological device of a distant, extraterrestrial civilization.

In this book, Loeb guides the reader through the exciting story of the first proven interstellar visitor to our solar system. He outlines his sensational theory and its far-reaching implications, which may affect science, religion, and the future of our species and planet. Extraterrestrial's thought-provoking journey into the farthest corners of science, space-time and human imagination suggests to readers that the limit is the starry sky and that it is worthwhile to think about what we can find there with an open mind. As strange as it may seem.
