In one paper, Dr. Loeb and a co-author wrote that they “confirmed the fireball location” in the ocean from “the timing of the strong seismic signal.” But you’ve determined that the seismic information wasn’t coming from a meteor. What do you think it was coming from?A truck.As in, a hyperspeed alien truck?No, it was an ordinary truck, like a normal truck driving past a seismometer. Not being seismologists, the Loeb team may have misunderstood the data. In reality, all they did was find a truck.And that truck was traveling where? In the Milky Way?No, no, no. The truck was traveling on the same island in Papua New Guinea. It’s an ordinary Earth truck. I guess technically that’s in the Milky Way!</a></label><br><a href="https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/112/078/688/417/922/896/original/1640fcd1af3777a5.png" rel="external">https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/112/078/688/417/922/896/original/1640fcd1af3777a5.png</a></li><li><label><a rel="external" href="https://gnusocial.jp/attachment/2364163">Screenshot of text:
In the conclusion of your paper, you write that you have “a very high degree of confidence that the purported fragments of the meteor recovered from the seafloor have nothing to do with the fireball” — and therefore, that the stuff plucked from the ocean floor was probably just stuff from Earth, or maybe a bit of the thousands of tons of meteorites that reach Earth every year. So we shouldn’t worry that aliens are invading our hospitals?You’d be quite reasonably justified in not worrying about aliens invading hospitals.What’s the bigger lesson from all this?There are two: One, if you want to do seismic analysis, it’s ideal if you check with a seismologist first. The other is, it’s not aliens.</a></label><br><a href="https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/112/078/688/524/896/342/original/20a4453fe5fbfb50.png" rel="external">https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/112/078/688/524/896/342/original/20a4453fe5fbfb50.png</a></li><li><article><header><div>Domain not in remote thumbnail source whitelist: static01.nyt.com</div><h5><a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/11/science/meteor-avi-loeb.html?unlocked_article_code=1.b00.0QFN.Ne8pbHks9G3p&amp;smid=url-share">Surprise: An ‘Extraterrestrial’ Gadget Was Something More Familiar</a></h5><div> from <span>By Matt Richtel</span></div></header><div>In 2014 a fireball from outer space was posited to be an alien artifact.

This interview with Benjamin Fernando about the follow up on claims by a certain Harvard astronomer of recovering an alien technology meteor is great.
