chrisjswanson Posted August 22, 2008 There's a strange stellar body in the Cygnus system called Cygnus-X3. It emits a beam of high energy particles (that some scientists claim are a new particle called cygnets) pointed at Earth from what I understand. The beam has a 4.7hr period and can be detected deep in caves. It's the only thing like it so far discovered in our galaxy. http://www.andrewcollins.com/page/articles...ry_cygnusx3.htm http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase...rlog/cygx3.html Does this appear in any way in ancient astrology? I find it quite curious. peace + love Chris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggie Posted August 22, 2008 can't help with the cygnus x-3 answer, but i agree that it's interesting. (hope that more info does come) what i found also interesting though is the SETI at home project, where the computers of everyone are used together with the internet to make a sort of supercomputer and it is used to decode packets of received waves from space and then sent back to the researchers for further analysis http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
