The First Terrestrial Alien Technosignature has been Identified. What Comes Next?

What would you do if you discovered an alien technology here on Earth? This question has long been limited to the theoretical domains of thought and Hollywood movie plots. In 2018, British Information Technology Professional Bruce Fenton was forced to respond to precisely that situation. Bruce’s investigation into a 1994 purported alien contact case had uncovered evidence suggesting the presence of an alien Bracewell Sentinel Prob, the Churinga, associated with an Indigenous Australian community. This artefact provided a series of voice-to-skull transmissions rich with data about the prehistory of our world. Bruce eventually answered the opening question by founding the Alien Technosignatures Research Group as a collaborative hub for investigative researchers, social scientists, expert advisors and philanthropists.

Our Mission

The A.T.R.G. research team are dedicated to in-depth, transparent investigation of all aspects of the transmissions recorded from the Churinga artefact. We aim to assess the reality of the core claims by cross-referencing the given details with available scientific records. Research findings will be shared through a media mix that includes scientific articles, presentations, podcasts and documentary films. At the core of this contact case is a prehistoric alien visitation by an alien megastructure, a silica artificial intelligence, and its deliberate destruction in orbit around Earth. We are informed that survivors made their way to the surface, landing near Broken Bay in New South Wales, Australia. These entities utilised their advanced technologies to intervene in the evolutionary processes of the planet’s most intelligent species, hominins. Initial exploration narrowed the dating of this claimed alien visitation to approximately 770,000 to 790,000 years ago.

We recognise that confirmation of a non-human intelligence interacting with our world represents a profound scientific paradigm shift. However, the astonishing confirmation of alien intelligence might pale compared to the uncovering evidence indicating our species is the product of an extraterrestrial intervention. Such an intimate revelation would bring implications far beyond evolutionary biology and genomics; we can envisage significant socio-economic, philosophical, psychological, and religious impacts. For all these reasons, we include representatives of the social sciences alongside material scientists in our team. While the outcome of such a finding becoming widely recognised is unknowable, we firmly believe that, in the end, truth and transparency must be our guiding principles.
