“China Sky Eye“, the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Telescope (FAST), began to search for aliens.
As the chief engineer of the FAST project site and observation base system, Zhu Boxin said that the search for aliens should first be carried out around the Milky Way. The Milky Way has many planets similar to the Earth, such as Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter. These planetary environments may be able to breed life. “Aliens may live on some planet around the solar system.”
Do aliens exist?
For thousands of years, humans have looked up to the sky, trying to figure out whether they are the only intelligent life in the universe.
Since 1960, humans have launched dozens of Mars exploration ships. Among them, the U.S. Vaijin 1 exploration ship once sent back a photo that resembled a human face, which shocked scientists. Is this the image of Martians? A statue created by his own appearance.
Mars may be the planet most similar to the Earth, with an atmosphere and seasonal changes, but the air on Mars is thin, only 1% of the sea level air on Earth. Because the atmosphere of Mars is too thin, asteroids frequently hit the surface of Mars, spreading sand and gravel all over the planet. Sandstorms were blown up by strong winds, swallowing up the entire planet.
But this does not mean that there are no living things on Mars. A few decades ago, humans believed that Earth was unique. It was the only planet we know of that gave birth to life and evolved millions of species. With abundant sunlight, warm waters, and a protective atmosphere, we naturally believe that these are indispensable conditions for the existence of life, which rules out the possibility of life on other known planets in the solar system.
