As the years go by, it seems that we are moving more and more towards some consistent discovery about the existence of alien technology and structure around us. An object that appeared in our Solar system in 2017 and, to this day, intrigues scientists and experts.
When first spotted in Maui, Hawaii, researchers believed it was a comet – or part of one. However, after evaluating it further, they realized that the object is not from our “neighborhood”.

Astronomers named the outsider 1I/’Oumuamua, which means “messenger from afar who arrives first” in Hawaiian.
Trying to reconstruct its orbit, scientists discovered that our “darling” had already orbited our Sun and was even moving away from here. In other words, he accelerated to get away. And that was precisely what generated so many theories about aliens.
But, to our joy (or sadness?), everything was refuted using Earth science.
In an article published in the scientific journal Nature, scientists pointed out that 1I/’Oumuamua has the same physical mechanism as other ice creams. It degass the hydrogen as it heats up with sunlight.
What happens is that the heating causes the “alien” object to release water and other molecules, creating a glowing trail. When this happens, hydrogen can become trapped inside the celestial body. When he is “touched” by the light of Sun the gas is released and can generate a force that leads to non-gravitational acceleration.
The English writer and philosopher Olaf Stapledon even talked about structures on other planets that could take advantage of the light from stars like the Sun. But it was only in 1960 that this became clearer.
Freeman Dyson theorized an “alien” object called the Dyson Sphere, a large structure that other civilizations could build around a star. The idea is to capture a lot of light energy. Scientists at Harvard University have come up with theories that 1I/'Oumuamua is a piece of a Dyson Sphere, as this would also explain the object's non-gravitational acceleration.
Furthermore, simulations carried out by scientists Zhang and Douglas Lin came up with the theory that our great mystery could be a fragment of something much larger. It would have been broken as it passed through its star. And that also would explain its shape and acceleration.
We may still have to wait a little longer to have any information about technology in fact alien.
