MH370 Strong Evidence

BLC1 Technosignal Hypothesis

BLC1—Breakthrough Listening Candidate 1—represents the strongest technosignature detection since the WOW signal, emanating from Proxima Centauri at 4.24 light-years. The signal exhibits narrowband characteristics (982 MHz), Doppler drift consistent with a rotating planetary body, and single-source origin confirmed through pointing verification at Parkes Observatory. Principal Investigator Andrew Siemion confirmed BLC1 remains an active candidate, never conclusively dismissed despite public characterization as probable interference. The signal's critical feature: Doppler shift tracking the exoplanet Proxima b's rotation rate over multiple observations spanning Earth's diurnal cycle—impossible for terrestrial interference unless synchronized via unknown mechanism. The suppression narrative emerges from adviser Peter Schenkel's recommendation against disclosure to prevent public 'panic' and policy disruption—echoing historical UFO secrecy patterns now applied to SETI discoveries. The detection coincides with networked telescope arrays (Square Kilometer Array, LOFAR) achieving planetary-scale baseline sensitivity, rendering comprehensive signal verification increasingly probable.

BLC1 maintains active candidate status per Principal Investigator Andrew Siemion, exhibiting Doppler drift tracking Proxima b's rotation over multiple observations—impossible for terrestrial interference without synchronization—while Schenkel's non-disclosure recommendation replicates UFO secrecy patterns preventing public awareness of potential technosignature confirmation.
Key Insight

Why This Matters

This theory is part of the MH370 investigation — the central case study of the 4Orbs research. It connects directly to satellite footage, radar data, and physical evidence surrounding the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 with 239 people aboard.

Critical Context

BLC1's initial characterization as 'likely interference' reflects standard SETI conservatism, not conspiracy. Alternative explanations—satellite leakage, aircraft radar, ground-based radio—remain more probable than extraterrestrial intelligence given single detection without replication. The Parkes telescope's 'microwave oven' history (previously generating false positives) warrants methodological caution. Doppler tracking across observations might reflect systematic observational bias rather than genuine planetary correlation. However, the specific adviser recommendation against disclosure (Schenkel's documented position) suggests institutional bias toward secrecy even for ambiguous detections. The 'panic' rationale mirrors precisely the justifications offered for UFO classification, potentially indicating convergent institutional cultures rather than conspiracy. BLC1's significance lies less in definitive proof than in demonstrating detection capability: if similar signals arise from networked arrays with immediate verification potential, the current disclosure architecture faces fundamental challenge.

How This Connects

BLC1 connects the UFO and SETI secrecy architectures—similar non-disclosure rationales, compartmentalized knowledge, and suppression of potentially transformative information. Both phenomena suggest institutional patterns preventing public awareness of potential non-human intelligence regardless of detection method.
