Stephen Hawking and Others on Board with Sending Space Drones to Alpha Centauri System
Physicists are�signing on to help answer the age old space question: “is there anyone else out there?”
FOX’s Gurnal Scott has more:
Stephen Hawking is adding his knowledge to�the goal of assessing the chances of fanning out a swarm of tiny spacecraft beyond the Milky Way to the Alpha Centauri system hoping to see if we are indeed alone in the universe.�The project is estimated at $100 million.�
Hawking says just in our galaxy there are planets that can sustain life:
(Hawking)�”And there are at least a hundred billion galaxies in the visible universe.”�
Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is also on board with the project. The small space drones would take at least two decades to reach their destination.
