A NASA filmmaker has hinted that scientists could be just weeks away from confirming the existence of extraterrestrial life. While there are countless claims online about UFOs (now referred to as UAPs) or encounters with aliens, none have been officially verified. However, the long wait for proof of alien life may soon come to an end, as one academic predicts evidence could be released as early as next month.
Unlike the usual claims from UFO enthusiasts, these statements come from Professor Simon Holland, a reputable scientist with ties to NASA and the BBC. In an interview with The Mirror, Holland revealed that two groups of astronomers are racing to publish their findings on alien life.
He mentioned, “We have found a non-human extraterrestrial intelligence in our galaxy, and people don’t know about it.” While he withheld many details, he said the information came from a source at Breakthrough Listen, a private research institute founded by Yuri Milner.
Before getting too excited, it’s important to note that more research is needed to confirm the existence of alien life. The study dates back to 2019, when a radiowave known as BLC-1, detected by Australia’s Parkes telescope, raised initial suspicions of a non-human technological signature.
Although early analyses suggested it wasn’t of extraterrestrial origin, Holland explained that Breakthrough Listen is collecting further evidence. He emphasized that the signal was not natural, describing it as a specific, narrow electromagnetic spectrum source, unlike the usual background noise detected by radio telescopes.
Holland also mentioned that the Chinese space agency is investigating the same radio signals through its FAST program, which uses the world’s largest telescope since the collapse of Arecibo. With both teams working on the data, Holland expects that their findings could be published within the next month.
