Pentagon-funded space weapons, NASA inspired robotic powered asteroids, and lasers designed to hide the Earth all point to a war in space, but who is the U.S. intending to fight?
With China gearing up for a Mars mission and Russia firing ballistic missiles at passing asteroids, space is set to become the next battleground, but some skeptics are worried there could be more at stake.
Stephen Hawking recently announced plans to team with Silicon Valley billionaire Yuri Milner and send a fleet of tiny nano ships out into the universe to try and find alien life. Using photonic propulsion, the tiny ships could arrive at Alpha Centauri in 15 years.
That may be why two astronomers from Columbia University are proposing that the governments of the Earth use lasers to hide the planet from alien enemies in space. After all, we’ve been beaming radio and television signals into space since WWII, and those signals could be picked up by extraterrestrials, even hostile ones.
Hawking’s own analysis of alien cultures says any intelligent life we find in space is more than likely to be hostile, according to his own Discovery Channel show Into The Universe.
