Why scientists may be missing extraterrestrial signals: New study offers an explanation

New SETI Institute research reveals stellar "space weather" can distort alien radio signals before they even leave their home systems. Plasma turbulence and stellar activity near planets can broaden narrow signals, making them harder to detect. This challenges traditional SETI searches that look for sharp frequency spikes, especially around M-dwarf…

SETI’s ‘Noah’s Ark’ – a space historian explores how the advent of radio astronomy led to the USSR’s search for extraterrestrial life

As humans began to explore outer space in the latter half of the 20th century, radio waves proved a powerful tool. Scientists could send out radio waves to communicate with satellites, rockets and other spacecraft, and use radio telescopes to take in radio waves emitted by objects throughout the universe.
