“Black Prince” is watching you
Someone is watching Earth from space
Alexander Kazantsev, a Soviet author of sci-fi books, once said that a mysterious “unaccounted” satellite called Black Prince was spinning around Earth. The writer believed the object might be an alien probe, a messenger from extraterrestrial civilizations. Some people including scientists paid attention to the writer’s hypothesis.
U.S. astrophysicist Ronald Bracewell was the first to take the hypothesis seriously. In 1960, he published a study to back his conclusions with data of practical radio engineering. The data indicated some strange phenomena, which took place during the transmission sessions. The scientist believed the phenomena were caused by the probe’s attempts to make contact with earth dwellers.
According to Bracewell, the probe has been in the vicinity of Earth for a long while. The probe will “return” our calls if we pay attention. But it will communicate only after a protracted period (about 200 years) of political stability on Earth and a continual interest shown by several generations of humans. After getting in touch with its mission control center, the probe may relay valuable information to Earth. We will probably join a chain of civilizations, which have been communicating one another for a long time.

So he was a science fiction writer? Indicative of the authenticity!

SETI. Are you listening??

So how does he know this? Did the aliens tell him so?
A report was sent to newspapers about Slayton who might have seen a meteor flying near the Moon.
So that's about it!
Have a nice day!
