June, 1999 Chilbolton Formation
|
On June 13, 1999, a crop formation was discovered at
Chilbolton that represented a Sierpenski Sieve, a type of
fractal that is used in the construction of
Fractal antennas.
Schematic of Formation

The formation appeared close to the
Chilbolton Radio Telescope, in the same area that a recent
schematic of the 1975 Arecibo transmission and an apparent
face have appeared. (See Unknowncountry.com news links
below.)
Fractal antennas are a recent innovation that allows much
more precise tuning than normal antennas. The
Sierpenski Sieve, in particular, is a fractal design used as
a monopole over an infinite ground plane.
One-half of a folded dipole antenna can be operated above a
ground plane so as to function as a folded monopole type of
antenna. Such an antenna has an input impedance of about
150 ohms.
Speculation: If what has been happening at Chilbolton over
the last three years represents a communication, perhaps the
key to it is this: a monopole antenna based on the Sierpenski
Sieve would be a transmission device. It is possible, using the
schematic of the crop formation that appeared in 1999, to
extrapolate the type of transmission such an antenna would
produce, and from that possibly to determine the exact band
and frequency.
Presumably the radio telescope a few hundred yards away, or
another like it, could be tuned to received such a signal. And
now, with the formations that have just appeared, we know
that the signal would be coming from the direction of Globular
Cluster M13, which is the direction in whigainhe 1975 Arecibo
transmission was sent.
