If aliens have looked for signs of intelligent human life, they might hear sounds reminiscent of an underground party in a Brooklyn warehouse — where the eerie sounds are both chill and intense.
And the crafts they fly in to hear what Earth sounds like are also slightly eerie, we have learned through new declassified video footage.
Welcome to the Abstract podcast from Inverse. I’m Tanya Bustos, your host.
Our first story is about the interstellar objects recently found zipping through our solar system. In the spring of 2020, when the Pentagon released videos taken by US Navy pilots showing an "unidentified aerial phenomenon,” it caused a stir among UFO enthusiasts and skeptics alike. The strange phenomenon, unlike anything the Navy pilots had seen before, remains "unidentified,” but questions about the bizarre footage remain.
Our second story is about what aliens would actually hear if they flew by Earth. By capturing the sound of the Earth in five recordings, the spacecraft BepiColombo discovered a new understanding of space instruments and data collection —not to mention the perfect trippy space sounds to unwind to after a night of crop circling in Middle America.
