Charles Hoskinson, the founder of Cardano, has recently revealed his involvement in an expedition dedicated to finding a meteor of interstellar origin that crashed onto Earth in 2014.
The United States Department of Defense had already confirmed the meteor’s extraterrestrial origin in 2019. The search for this remarkable object is being led by the Galileo Project, which operates under the auspices of Harvard University, with Professor Avi Loeb and his student Amir Siraj at the helm.
In an intriguing move, Hoskinson had previously invested $1.5 million in the Galileo Project in March 2023. On June 16th, he made his presence known, joining the researchers on the coast of Papua New Guinea in the Pacific Ocean, and documenting his experiences through a series of tweets.
One of his updates highlighted the extensive ground they still needed to cover, noting that they hadn’t yet begun using the sluice sled, an important tool for the expedition.
Meanwhile, Professor Loeb, another member of the research team, has been diligently updating a blog with daily reports on the expedition’s progress. In a recent post dated June 16th, he revealed the discovery of a manganese-platinum wire with a unique abundance pattern distinct from commonly available commercial products.
Hoskinson’s involvement in such an intriguing venture comes as no surprise, as he is known for investing in unconventional and exciting projects that push the boundaries of knowledge.
In March 2022, he announced his investment in a project dedicated to resurrecting the woolly mammoth, combining blockchain technology with the field of de-extinction.
With Hoskinson’s support, the Galileo Project and its team of dedicated researchers aim to shed light on the mysteries surrounding alien life and the potential existence of UFOs.
As the search for the interstellar meteor continues, the world eagerly awaits any breakthroughs or discoveries that may emerge from this extraordinary expedition.
The scientists involved in the expedition harbor a strong belief in the existence of extraterrestrial life and speculate that the meteor that crashed into the ocean may actually be a fragment of an unidentified flying object (UFO).
