The signal from the direction of Proxima Centauri remains a mystery.

The signal from the direction of Proxima Centauri remains a mystery.

The signal from the direction of Proxima Centauri has been in the news. The BLC-1 (Breakthrough Listen Candidate 1) signal is not happening again(1). And that means there is not knowing where that signal came from. The BLC-1 signal is a mystery, and if there are no other signals, the only way to find out is coming from some man-made satellite or is it coming from the Proxima Centauri is trying to break the possible code of that message. And there is always the possibility that there is no code in that message, what came and then turned silent. The only way to get information about this signal is to analyze itself. 

So the thing that everybody is hoping is that it's not the alien signal. But there is always the possibility that the probe, sent by another civilization has sent that message. Or that thing can be the targeting signal what helps somebody to aim the antenna in the right place. The only thing that shares the information of that signal is scientific magazines. 

BLC-1 is a very fascinating signal. And maybe it is the first of signals along with Wow!-signal(2) that will analyze by using quantum computers. There is the possibility that the most powerful computers in the world are finding the algorithms from those signals. And there is the possibility that those algorithms can break by using the most modern calculators the quantum computers. 

But there is the possibility that the mystery of those two signals remains forever. That means that the code-breakers would not find any kind of codes or reasonable sequences from both messages or radio signals. That means that the origin of those signals can remain a mystery.

The origin of the Wow!-signal has been calculated by determining the origin of that signal both Big Ear-telescopes antennas and that eliminated the error in a computer program, which denied that the system didn't store data which of antennas captured that signal. So the calculation brought two points where that signal could come. 

The interesting thing about the Wow!-signal's origin is that the other of those points are in the same direction as one yellow star. That star is similar to the Sun. But it's 1800 light-years away from us. (3)

And that thing can be a coincidence. But it is the fascinating detail in the alien-hunting. The fact is that the origin of the Wow!-signal might ever solve statistically. And the same fate might face the BLC-1. Unless the supercomputers are not finding secret codes from those messages.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
