    What about a brown dwarf with magnetic field orbiting a neutron star allowing a small amount of ionized gas to transfer to the pole of the neutron star with a 22 minute rotational period. This creates a stream plasma that can feed an otherwise dead magnetic field-powered synchrotron photon source?

    Magnetars are mind blowing to me. I heard an astronomer say that if one came within the distance of one thousand light years it would erase all data from every credit card on earth or something like that. I might have the distance wrong but I’m just saying the power of its magnetic field is beyond comprehension. I have always been fascinated by neutron stars since I learned about them in middle school science class. I became interested in astronomy even more than I already was

    Two thoughts: We need to have one or more of our explorer vehicles turn and look at Earth to measure how radio signals that are intelligently produced appear or record and what pulses look like from afar. Second, have they tried to figure out if there is a language in the transmission? Can we send a pulsing signal out towards it and measure that as well? I just think there needs to be more intense looking into actual data, and not what something "could be", "might be", or is "believed to be". That is too much faith language when we should be looking for actual knowledge. JMO.

      @@catserver8577 I think you might be misunderstanding me, I was just pointing out that there IS an explanation for this phenomenon, and it does not involve aliens producing insane amounts of energy to produce these dataless emissions for unknown reasons. The emissions that humans produce are incredibly faint in comparison, and no, we do NOT currently have detectors sensitive enough to detect that. The actual power needed to produce a signal like this would have to be produced in a way we cannot reproduce if it was artificial. Anton's video about axions is the one I was talking about, it explains this phenomenon if the researchers are right (this is now new btw, axions are an OLD concept).

    • @johncronin9540
      @johncronin9540 27 дней назад

      @@catserver8577. We actually HAVE sent out several spacecraft to every planet in our solar system. They have either been flybys, such as Pioneer and Voyager, and New Horizons (which flew past Pluto nearly a decade ago), or to orbit planets or other celestial objects (asteroids, comets), and quite a few which have landed on other planets, mostly Mars.
      The data they send back to Earth is obviously sent via radio waves, which are “translated” by computers on Earth, giving us data, images, etc. So we know how to interpret radio signals with data encoded in them, we’ve been doing it for decades now. Of course, it takes a while for spacecraft to either reach their destination, or, in the cases of Pioneer, Voyager, and New Horizon, to even exit the solar system. The two Voyager spacecraft were first launched in the 1970s, and are just now reaching the edge of the solar system (depending on how one defines that).
      They broadcast data which, even at the speed of light, takes hours to reach Earth, and because their power is slowly running out, many instruments have been turned off, and the signal is very weak, requiring the use of very sensitive radio telescopes to receive it. We simply haven’t sent any human made spacecraft any further than that, and the primary mission of these spacecraft, the exploration of the outer planets of the solar system was accomplished long ago.
      Our current technology just doesn’t permit us to send something out any further than that at a rapid speed (compared to the speed of light). Voyager and Pioneer before it reached their current velocities with the assistance of gravitational slingshots as they passed various planets, but it will take them thousands of years to reach a distance equivalent to the nearest stars to our solar system, and the power source of these spacecraft will long have been exhausted, and they will simply be inert objects.
      Remember, we didn’t first send a spacecraft into space until 1957, only just under 70 years ago. It’s much easier (and less expensive) to use our technology, basically instruments that observe the sky receiving signals of em radiation (light) and learn about the universe that way. But because we have sent probes to various objects in our solar system, and have had to program those probes to encode the data those probes collected (including images), in radio signals, send them back, to be uncoded back on Earth, we would have a pretty good idea of what to look for if we received a radio signal from an extraterrestrial intelligent source that was sending data to us.
      There is an active SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) program that is currently looking for radio signals that might be from extraterrestrial intelligence “broadcasting”. So what you are suggesting has been happening for quite some time now.

But it's highly unlikely that multiple installations would detect the exact same anomaly with the exact same period for 30+ years if it was a malfunction. Perhaps a stray signal of some type? But again - 30+ years, and it has all the characteristics of a real pulsar 🤔
