Is Saturn Communicating With Us?

The question is, “Is Saturn Communicating with us?”

When the Cassini spacecraft reached planet Saturn in April 2002 it detected radio emissions.

I listened to Saturn’s radio emissions on the internet and was surprised as I’d heard something like this before.

Then I remembered, I’d heard similar sounds in the 1956 film called the “Forbidden Planet,” (also known as Fatal Planet) starring Walter Pidgeon, Anne Francis, Leslie Nielsen and The Robot (Robby the Robot).

The music and sound effects are very similar created by a husband and wife composers Louis and Bebe Barron. They were pioneers in the field of electronic music.

The short version; by using a circuit called a ring modulator and overloading the circuits until they burned out, they created unique and unpredictable sounds, however these could never be recreated again.

So with all that said, could an advanced species be emitting a soundtrack or are they communicating with us by sending us something sounding similar?

Why not make up your own minds.

Listen to the sounds of Saturn on the internet and watch the film then you can tell me what you think?
