Astronomers may have been listening for alien civilizations in only a small slice of the radio spectrum while overlooking a largely unexplored range of higher frequencies. Using archived data from the ...
Scientists around the world have spent decades pointing radio telescopes at the sky, hoping to catch that one signal proving we’re not alone in the universe. But now researchers at SETI are asking: ...
What steps can be taken to identify why we haven’t received radio signals from an extraterrestrial intelligence, also called technosignatures? This is what a recent study published in The ...
The mysterious interstellar object known as 3I/ATLAS may not be an alien, or even an alien artifact, as was once popularly theorized. That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t double and triple-check just to be ...
Could the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS exhibit technosignatures, or signals of alien technology? This is what a recent study published in The Astronomical Journal hopes to address as a team of ...
Staring into the starry night sky convinces many of us that we can’t be alone in this universe. So far, astronomers have been looking for alien signals in a specific part of the radio spectrum, which ...
Radio silence has long puzzled those searching for extraterrestrial intelligence, but the answer might lie much closer to the source of potential signals than previously thought. Conditions around ...
