NASA unveiled new exoplanet discovery

[Keit]

First, there is the following SOTT article.

I listened right now to NASA's news conference, and found it very surprising. Not because they talked about a solar system with planets similar to our own that have a good chance of hosting life , but because they talked about it in a such nonchalant way. I bet the disclosure peeps are going to have a field day after this one.

Actually, there was a strange feeling of crossing a threshold, as if there was a fair amount of preparation of the public done through movies and such, that now the possibility of an alien life doesn't sound so preposterous as before. But of course sans the hyperdimentional aspect of it. But still, very curious.

There's also this article I was just looking at:
_https://www.nasa.gov/press-release/nasa-telescope-reveals-largest-batch-of-earth-size-habitable-zone-planets-around

It also seems quite nonchalant to me, considering not just one planet in the possible habitable zone, but THREE. The odds just seem out of this world heh

I agree about the crossing of a threshold, although like you said it seems if there is to be any disclosure, it will probably be first about the nuts and bolts aspect of the phenomenon of other life.

I did find this quite odd as well.

First (I may be super off here) but they announced the event in the day that Churkin passed, which to me sounded like..."Russian ambassador died in NY, oh look planets!" But that's besides the point.

Then second, I was reading the wave chapter 9 again last night and therein it's discussed the subject of alien life and window fallers. And how some of this information was absolutely classified. But then, suddenly, we see channels such as History running all sorts of series about ancient aliens and so on.

What I'm trying to say is that, the prospect of alien life has gone from a damned subject to a very popular idea in the minds of the general public.

And this announcement seemed to be going in that direction.

 

[Charade]

I am wondering who 'owns' them? Are they free will STS or STO? Or some other designation.

I don't think it's too speculative to say that they have a folder of potential "recent discoveries" to declassified whenever they want to distract from something else.

Other than that, it seems that when there is a growing popularity of a certain topic, and they can't keep hiding information, they can release some info and twist the conclusions to direct lines of thinking

 

[dantem]

At first glance looks like a distraction to me. Don't know about the very rules for a planet to have "life" as we know it, but these behave like moons zipping around a tiny star in less than 10 days! ... Next year they'll go for a new satellite-telescope in orbit to have a better look at it.

Hi dantem,

Not knowing the answer myself either, I googled for habitable zone requirements and found interesting answers. Here are some examples:

Happy reading ! ;)

From my perspective it seems like our current understanding on how life can exist, and in which form, outside of our planet is based on a human centric perspective.

I don't remember in which book John Keel discussed that, but he made a pretty good point that all we know (or think we know) about life, is based on human centric ideas and thus pretty faulty, at best. So in short, I don't think we can reliably measure, if life exist elsewhere by our very limited understanding of it and the nature of our reality and universe.

So I tend to be pretty skeptical about all those models on how, where and in which condition "life can exist". On top of that comes the hyperdimensional aspect. So if X scientist say, that there can be (or can't be) life "here or there" because of "this or that law", I say: Says who?

Also, all life probably doesn't have to be necessarily defined purely physically, which opens another can of worms.

 

[Palinurus]

Obviously main stream science has severe limitations, I quite agree. Thanks for the reminder, Pashalis.


Meanwhile, as was to be expected SOTT already carries the first (?) attempt to humor on this new find:

https://www.sott.net/article/343497-NASA-receives-first-audio-message-from-newly-discovered-planets

Radio signals emerging from the newly-discovered 'TRAPPIST-1' planetary system have been decoded by linguistic experts at NASA, confirming the existence of extraterrestrial lifeforms who want 'no part of Earth's bullshit'.

There was great excitement from astronomy enthusiasts earlier this week following the discovery of seven planets in the 'habitable' zone of a nearby solar system; planets which seemingly had all the criteria for supporting life.

However, this was eroded somewhat today when NASA announced that lifeforms on the third of these planets seemed to be 'standing very still as if not to be noticed', much like how someone would hide behind the sofa in their house if a TV license inspector or debt collector came to the door.

After further radio probing, a signal from the planet was received and later translated, and appears to show that the alien lifeforms were well aware of the existence of Earth.

"The transmission begins 'Oh fucking bollocky bollocks'" said a spokesperson for NASA, addressing a press conference.

"'They've found us, well that's just tickety-fucking-boo'. The conversation then breaks down into a series of back-and-forth arguments where the aliens appear to blame each other for being found, with one very vocal creature appearing to be furious that Earthlings may now attempt to travel to the new planet. 'Why did you have to have the telly on so fucking loud?', they say".

The transmission concludes with the lifeforms stating that they're 'off out for a bit' and they 'don't know when they'll be back'.

And elsewhere I found this:

Trappist is also a famous Belgian beer.

 

[duyunne]

Who needs to keep Earth clean or habitable when we can focus on recolonization? It's an impressive reveal but (to me) also more fodder for escapist optimism.

 

[dantem]

...
Trappist is also a famous Belgian beer.

Doh! I knew I heard that name before!

Mumbling about life I was thinking about the 'moon' behavior of these planets. If our Moon is sucking life from our planet as G's said, maybe those planets are sucking life from their Star, and zipping around fast to speed up the process and grow. Could be a proto-System of life anyway. If Soros goes bankrupt soon, maybe we'll figure it out next century

Yes, but it is deliberately wrong direction serving to distract us from the "alien life" and control system on our planet and looking on it as a "distant possibility" somewhere on distant planets.

That's what I think is taking place too. It's a perfect way for the PTB to introduce the topic of 'alien lifeforms' to the public but doing it in a way that diverts the attention from what's really happening at an Earthly and hyperdimensional level. At the same time, it allows them to push their agenda of wanting to colonize space, by investing money in technology capable of getting us out there and exploiting the resources, a la Avatar.

 

[Yozilla]

Almost seems like "they" are rumping up the conditioning of potential herds to be evacuated to targeted "exoplanets" when SHTF. Gatherin' venues possibly could be known locations of 'apparitions' of 'there Ladies' like Lourdes and Medjugorje where devoted pilgrims could seek ascension. Interestingly Pope Frances expressed some doubts regarding that phenomenon in November:

_http://protectthepope.com/?p=9160

During a recent homily at one of his daily Masses at St Martha’s Pope Francis appears to criticise the Medjugorje visionaries claim to receive daily messages from Our Lady, ‘“But I know a visionary, who receives letters from Our Lady, messages from Our Lady”. And the Pope commented: “But, look, Our Lady is the Mother of everyone! And she loves all of us. She is not a postmaster, sending messages every day.”

... and corollary:

Number of Italian pilgrims to Medjugorje ‘falls by half’ after Pope announces ruling

Medjugorje reportedly sees a decline in pilgrims after the Pope says a ruling on the apparitions is imminent

Millions of pilgrims flock to Medjugorje every year, but the popular shrine has seen a decline in visitors after Pope Francis said a decision on the apparitions is imminent, the New York Times has reported.
