The future of the Earth: dead planets send strange zombie signals

According to a new study published in the Avis monthly of the Royal Astronomical Society, some dead planets emit radio waves long after their death. These can be spotted from the ground in hopes of hearing strange sounds of zombies.

Planets transformed by their stars into nuclei can form a circle with the star that destroyed them and create rare radio waves. When certain stars reach the end of their life, they can expand and burn all nearby planets, turning them into metal cores orbiting them, before they become white dwarfs.

The white dwarf and surrounding planets can form a circle and emit radio waves, where radiation from the circle can be captured by radio telescopes on Earth.

Scientists now plan to find these dead planets by discovering their own zombie signals, which would be an exciting feat, because no one would discover a large planet or its nucleus simply by observing magnetic effects.

"We think our chances of making exciting discoveries are very good," said Dmitry Ferras, senior researcher at the University of Warwick.

Scientists need to know how long the nuclei have survived after stripping their outer layers, although studies have shown that these (in a number of cases) can survive up to a billion dollars. 39; years.

Therefore, future discoveries can give us more precise information about how our planet will unfold in the future.
