Our solar system holds clues to extraterrestrial existence from "summary" of EXTRATERRESTRIAL by Avi Loeb
Our solar system holds clues to extraterrestrial existence that we have not yet fully explored. The objects within our cosmic neighborhood can provide valuable insights into the possibility of life beyond Earth. For example, the interstellar object 'Oumuamua that passed through our solar system in 2017 raised questions about its unusual shape and behavior, leading some scientists to speculate that it could be an artificial probe sent by an alien civilization. While this hypothesis may seem far-fetched, it demonstrates the importance of studying celestial bodies for signs of extraterrestrial activity. In addition to 'Oumuamua, other mysterious phenomena in our solar system, such as the strange behavior of certain asteroids or the unexplained presence of organic molecules on Mars, suggest that we may not be alone in the universe. By investigating these anomalies further, we may uncover new evidence that supports the existence of extraterrestrial life. For instance, ongoing missions to Mars and upcoming missions to Europa and Enceladus ...
