A group of scientists discovers signs of the existence of an extraterrestrial civilization

nullA group of Swedish, Indian and American astronomers said that seven stars in cosmic space may contain Dyson fields that indicate the presence of extraterrestrial civilizations.
This was stated in an article written by the group for the prestigious British scientific magazine MNRAS
( Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society ), An-Hola
Scientists studied the star radiation recorded by the Gaia, 2MASS and WISE telescopes. It turns out that stellar objects that have Dyson fields by default emit an excessive amount of infrared radiation that is not accessible to devices on Earth. It is known that Dyson fields can only appear through the efforts of highly advanced extraterrestrial beings, so studying the potential radiation emitted by these devices is one of the main ways to search for the presence of other living beings in cosmic space.
“We were able to detect seven visible M dwarf objects that show excess emission of unknown origin and fit our model of the Dyson field,” the article said.
The article indicated that current scientific theories do not explain the excess radiation detected in stars. Astronomers plan to examine these objects with more powerful telescopes to detect a hypothetical sign of life there.
The idea that highly developed extraterrestrial civilizations could build astro-engineering structures was first proposed more than half a century ago by the American theoretical physicist Freeman Dyson. This idea later became called the "Dyson field."
The Dyson sphere is a huge virtual structure that completely surrounds the space star and captures a large percentage of its energy. This concept is a thought experiment that attempts to explain how alien civilizations obtain their energy requirements when these requirements exceed the limit that these civilizations can generate from the sources of their planet alone. A very small fraction of a star's energy emissions reaches the surface of any orbiting planet. These built structures encircling the star enable the alien civilization to obtain more energy.
