Chilbolton 2001 Crop Formations: Paul Vigay’s Analysis of the Arecibo Echoes and Their Discrepancies

To the point

In August 2001 near the Chilbolton radio telescope two crop formations appeared—one copying the Arecibo message and the other resembling a human face—led by Paul Vigay, who compared them to the original and found nine major differences (extra silicon, an extra DNA strand, altered nucleotide counts, a more alien-looking humanoid, a revised transmitter diagram, and changes to population, height about 3 ft 4 in, and solar-system data), while noting a left-right decoding issue, considering silicon-based life, ET biology, or a hoax as explanations, and highlighting that the episode spurred broader public interest in binary communication and SETI.

Chilbolton 2001 Crop Formations: Paul Vigay’s Analysis of the Arecibo Echoes and Their Discrepancies

Two crop formations appeared near the Chilbolton radio telescope in August 2001—one echoing the 1974 Arecibo transmission and the other resembling a humanoid face—prompting Paul Vigay to visit the sites, compare the patterns with the Arecibo message, and identify nine major discrepancies such as an extra silicon atom (14) in the elemental section, an extra DNA strand, altered nucleotide counts, and a revised transmitter diagram and solar-system chart, with the height decoding to about three feet four inches, debates over a left-right mirror decoding, possible interpretations about silicon-based life or ET physiology or a hoax, and a broader intensification of public interest in binary encoding and SETI.
