Meh, there's plenty of naturally occurring things, that look 'artificial' to the human eye at first glance.

Some metallic spheres after entry of a meteoroid into earths atmosphere are not enough unless you explain how they couldn't have formed naturally.
Metallic spheres are one of the easiest things to create naturally. We used the principle in shot towers throughout history to make bullets. I'm just an armchair expert, but it doesn't surprise me in the least we'd see near-perfect metallic spheres from a meteor burning up in the atmosphere.
Dippin' dots are still made that way.
My understanding is that metallic spherules from iron meteorites would be expected to include nickel. The absence of nickel in iron containing spherules like these would usually indicate a non-natural source i.e. human technology. The speed and trajectory of the meteor which may be the source, however, indicates an interstellar origin.
I believe that initial analyses of these spherules has revealed an absence of nickel.
The spherules were recovered from areas in the expected debris zone; none were recovered from the surrounding, control zones.
Professor: This material doesn’t appear to have been made naturally

I am not convinced until someone shows me some actual evidence.
Regardless, I am interested to see how the religious zealots will try to explain aliens when "god created man in his likeness". Oh yeah, did he create aliens in his likeness too? Or will they come up with another "immaculate conception by a ghost"-like crazy explanation noone has every heard about?
I've actually heard religious people talk about the idea of aliens.
Essentially their conclusion was that the bible doesn't rule out aliens because it doesn't say God didn't make other planets with life.
Yeah, nothing in the Bible says there can’t be aliens. It doesn’t really change anything. For the Christians who deny the possibility of aliens, they probably just have a superiority complex, as do many who claim to know more than they do or who claim their theories on origin of life are definitive. Nothing new with humanity.
I’m sure I read recently that the Vatican is not against the idea
The Vatican is pretty pro science. It's a lot of the other Christian faiths that are overly strict with their interpretation of the bible.
"god created man in his likeness". Oh yeah, did he create aliens in his likeness too?
Depends on what that "likeness" is. What if "God created both man and alien to be bloodthirsty creatures to fight each other"... and the winner gets to fight God live on GodTV. In the meantime, tune in to PlanetaryWars channel this weekend to see a whole civilization annihilate itself!
The name always pop up with strings like fermi paradox on YouTube so I'll take his opinion as entertainment, much like Michio Kaku. I guess futurist like Avi and Michio most likely to be wrong.
It says in the article they're not sure whether it's artificial.
You know what this tells me? It tells me that Dr. Avi Loeb would touch space goo and press any button placed in front of him. Hasn't he read/watched The Expanse?! 😂
Soon: "US Officials declares the reports of alien technology being found as untrue. Harvard Professor Avi Loeb dies of an accident."
