Encrypted “alien” message from Mars: Father and daughter managed to decipher it!

The encrypted alien message from the NASA orbiter orbiting Mars was deciphered by a father and daughter after months of work. The message contains important information about molecular structures.

NASA carried out a simulation project to decipher a fake “alien” message sent from the ExoMars orbiter on Mars. The project, carried out in collaboration with the SETI Institute and media artist Daniela de Paulis, aimed to observe how humans would interpret a message from another world.
The encrypted message sent from ExoMars in May 2023 was developed with the support of the European Space Agency (ESA). The encrypted message was beamed from NASA’s ExoMars orbiter orbiting the Red Planet in May 2023, and the SETI Institute invited the public to decipher it. The message contained white dots arranged in clusters of five on a black background. Father-daughter duo Ken and Keli Chaffin finally cracked the code after running simulations “relentlessly for hours and days.” However, the content of the message is still a matter of debate.
The Chaffin duo determined that the “alien” message in the ExoMars signals contained “pixels” of 1, 6, 7 and 8, representing the atomic numbers of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and oxygen. They also determined that the message symbolized amino acid molecules, which are the building blocks of life.
According to a blog post by the European Space Agency, the father and daughter identified the message as symbolizing cell formation. “The message I deciphered is a simple image of five amino acids shown in the universal organic molecular diagram notation and a few pixel dots appearing between the clusters and molecular diagrams,” Ken Chaffin said.
Once the message has been deciphered, the next step for the project is to interpret it and determine what it is trying to convey. ESA says the message raises the question of “is it an extraterrestrial intelligence plotting destruction or a peaceful message?” The public is also encouraged to share their views online. Participants are asked to explain the methods they used to interpret the message, making the deciphering process verifiable.
