Summary

See the Video! https://youtube.com/live/BFuW-zfH5RU Avi Loeb joined Brian Keating after he led a Galileo Project expedition to the Pacific Ocean to retrieve spherules of the first recognized interstellar meteor, IM1. These samples were brought back to Harvard College Observatory over 50 spherules in total, which lay on the deep ocean floor for nearly a decade. These sub-millimeter-sized spheres, which appear under a microscope as beautiful metallic marbles, were concentrated along the expected path of IM1 — about 85 kilometers off the coast of Manus Island in Papua New Guinea. Their discovery opens a new frontier in astronomy, where what lay outside the solar system is studied through a microscope rather than a telescope. That 83% of the matter in the universe is apparently composed of dark matter which was not found yet in the solar system should teach us modesty in forecasting the nature of interstellar objects.

0:00.0	We know from the analysis of the Fireball data that the government provided that it had sustained stress far greater than all other space rocks that were cataloged by
0:18.7	NASA over the past decade, 272 of them.
0:21.8	The point is that it had material strength above all the space rocks that we
0:26.5	often see from the solar system and that raised an interesting question you know it
0:31.2	maybe it's made of some artificial alloy and maybe it was moving very
0:36.0	fast just because it had the benefit of artificial propulsion. Palia. of the show and frequent guest, esteemed Harvard Professor Avi Loeb has done it again.
0:55.6	He stirred up a storm of ridicule and controversy over his latest discoveries and conjectures.
1:01.5	As you may remember, in 2019, Avi and a student Amir Suraj published a paper on an object
1:07.8	transiting our solar system, Amuwa Amuwa.
1:11.6	The paper supported the theory that it was of interstellar origin.
1:16.7	In 2021, he published his book, Extratrestrial, the first sign of intelligent life beyond

1:45.1	Are these tiny marble-like spherials
