One of the longest-standing techniques in humanity’s search for life beyond Earth may be causing scientists to miss alien ...
New SETI research suggests space weather like solar winds could be interfering with alien radio signals, making them harder ...
We may be missing alien radio signals because they have become smeared beyond the narrowband detectors that SETI utilizes, a new study suggests.
For four decades, many SETI experiments have focused on finding sharp spikes in frequency but the new study says signals may not stay narrow as they travel away from their home system.
The researchers who scan the skies for radio signals from extraterrestrials are now rethinking their approach.
Follow up observations never found a repeat, which only deepened the mystery. The signal’s narrow bandwidth and intensity looked exactly like the kind of artificial tone that early SETI papers had ...
SETI researchers may have missed alien signals due to a cosmic phenomenon that distorts narrowband radio waves, new research says.
A new study by researchers at the SETI Institute suggests that stellar "space weather" could make radio signals from extraterrestrial intelligence harder to detect. Stellar activity and plasma ...
SETI has spent decades listening for a sharp, well-defined radio signal that could indicate it was sent by distant intelligent life. Now researchers believe that space weather could distort and blur s ...
