Scientists from Breakthrough Listen may have found alien signal
William Sachiti, a roboticist and artificial intelligence entrepreneur, has purchased the Royal Air Force (RAF) Neatishead system – a huge radar machine which once beamed out microwaves to warn of an incoming nuclear missile. Dubbed the AMES Type 84 radar unit, the system was officially in operation from 1962 until 1994 and was one out of an arsenal of just five that were built in the UK.
Now that the massive system is out of the RAF’s hands, Mr Sachiti wants to use it for his “expensive hobby”.
When asked by the Daily Mail what he intended to use the system for, he responded: “I will find a way to bring this to life and let the people choose the best way to use it.
“If people want to hunt UFOS, I guess it is hunting UFOs.
“If that is what the world wants, who am I to judge.”
But Mr Sachiti was not always dead-set on using the old system for this particular use.
