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 ...

Institute has found that we may have missed transmissions from intelligent alien life for a very benign reason. SETI’s searches are focused only on very narrow signals, so the organization typically ...

The researchers who scan the skies for radio signals from extraterrestrials are now rethinking their approach.

Assuming intelligent aliens know how to harvest energy from stars, would humanity be able to spot these high-level structures?

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 ...

Solar winds near aliens’ homes – and ours – might be blowing away signs of alien technosignatures by broadening signals The SETI Institute, the nonprofit that conducts a search for extraterrestrial ...

Turbulent plasma near distant stars could blur ultra-narrow signals before they leave their home star systems - making them ...

Northwestern University engineers have developed the first modular robots with athletic intelligence. They can be combined and recombined in the wild, recover from injury and keep moving no matter ...

The truth about aliens may be out there, but don't expect them to look like little green men, RadarOnline. com can report.

E.T. could be phoning home — but we’re not hearing the call. A new study published in The Astrophysical Journal argues that “space weather” could be distorting incoming transmissions from ...

We may be missing alien radio signals because they have become smeared beyond the narrowband detectors that SETI utilizes, a new study suggests.

Over hundreds of thousands of years, humans somehow evolved a type of intelligence found nowhere else in the animal kingdom, at least on Earth. According to the most famous theory describing the ...
