New photo Controversial professor STILL claims Oumuamua is an alien probe

A Harvard professor who received huge backlash after claiming the mysterious cigar-shaped space rock Oumuamua was an alien probe is steadfastly standing by his controversial theory. 

Avi Loeb, chair of Harvard University's Astronomy Department, has given an interview defending his hypothesis that the mysterious rock is 'a fully operational probe sent intentionally to Earth's vicinity by an alien civilisation.'

Dr Loeb has now said that when humans succeed in leaving the solar system we will be greeted with a message that says 'Welcome to the interstellar club' from distant alien civilisations.

'As soon as we leave the Solar System, I believe we will see a great deal of traffic out there,' he told Israeli newspaper Haaretz.

'Possibly we'll get a message that says, "Welcome to the interstellar club." Or we'll discover multiple dead civilisations - that is, we'll find their remains.' 

Oumuamua, Hawaiian for 'messenger' or 'scout,' was first viewed by telescopes in October 2017.

The alien rock was the first interstellar object to enter our solar system and is about 1,300 feet long (400 meters), and only about 130 feet wide.

Dr Loab and a team of researchers at Harvard published a research paper based on the theory that a quirk of its acceleration was a result of alien propulsion.  

'Currently there is an unexplained phenomena, namely, the excess acceleration of Oumuamua, which we show may be explained by the force of radiation pressure from the sun,' co-author and Harvard astrophysicist Shmuel Bialy said at the time.  

'However this requires the body to have a very large surface and be very thin, which is not encountered in nature.'

Their suggestion of an alien force at work went viral and received condemnation from other scientists. 

Harvard's academics pressed ahead with their hypothesis despite the concerns from their peers.  

'We have no way of knowing whether it's active technology, or a spaceship that is no longer operative and is continuing to float in space,' Professor Loeb added recently. 

'But if 'Oumuamua was created together with a whole population of similar objects that were launched randomly, the fact that we discovered it means that its creators launched a quadrillion probes like it to every star in the Milky Way.'  

WHAT IS 'OUMUAMUA AND WHAT DO WE KNOW ABOUT IT?

A cigar-shaped asteroid named 'Oumuamua sailed past Earth at 97,200mph (156,428km/h) in October.

It was first spotted by a telescope in Hawaii on 19 October, and was observed 34 separate times in the following week. 

It is named after the Hawaiian term for 'scout' or 'messenger' and passed the Earth at about 85 times the distance to the moon.

It was the first interstellar object seen in the solar system, and it baffled astronomers.

Initially, it was thought the object could be a comet. 

However, it displays none of the classic behaviour expected of comets, such as a dusty, water-ice particle tail.

The asteroid is up to one-quarter mile (400 meters) long and highly-elongated - perhaps 10 times as long as it is wide.

That aspect ratio is greater than that of any asteroid or asteroid observed in our solar system to date.

But the asteroid's slightly red hue — specifically pale pink — and varying brightness are remarkably similar to objects in our own solar system.

Around the size of the Gherkin skyscraper in London, some astronomers were convinced it was piloted by aliens due to the vast distance the object traveled without being destroyed – and the closeness of its journey past the Earth. 

Alien hunters at SETI – the Search for Extra-terrestrial Intelligence based at Berkeley University, California said there was a possibility the rock was ‘an alien artefact’.

But scientists from Queen’s University Belfast took a good look at the object and said it appears to be an asteroid, or ‘planetesimal’ as originally thought. 

Researchers believe the cigar-shaped asteroid had a 'violent past', after looking at the light bouncing off its surface. 

They aren't exactly sure when the violent collision took place, but they believe the lonely asteroid's tumbling will continue for at least a billion years.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
