Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth by Avi Loeb

 Lo mínimo que puede decir es que es un libro inquietante y poderoso. No es cualquier persona la que está proponiendo que se tome en serio una hipótesis de posible vida inteligente fuera de nuestra galaxia. El libro está escrito por un científico de altísimo nivel para el público en general. Es inevitable a veces leer cuestiones muy técnicas pero en este tipo de temas es complejo evitarlo del todo.

El autor deja claro su mensaje, considerar seriamente que Oumuamua es producto de inteligencia extraterrestre...

Descripción oficial:

In late 2017, scientists at a Hawaiian observatory glimpsed a strange object soaring through our inner solar system. Astrophysicist Avi Loeb conclusively showed it was not an asteroid; it was moving too fast along a strange orbit, and leaving no trail of gas or debris in its wake. There was only one conceivable explanation: the object was a piece of advanced technology created by a distant alien civilization.

In Extraterrestrial, Loeb takes readers inside the thrilling story of the first interstellar visitor to be spotted in our solar system. He outlines his theory and its profound implications: for science, for religion, and for the future of our planet. A mind-bending journey through the furthest reaches of science, space-time, and the human imagination, Extraterrestrial challenges readers to aim for the stars-and to think critically about what's out there, no matter how strange it seems.
