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.

Radio silence has long puzzled those searching for extraterrestrial intelligence, but the answer might lie much closer to the ...

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.

Solar winds near aliens’ homes – and ours – might be blowing away signs of alien technosignatures by broadening signals The ...

SETI researchers may have missed alien signals due to a cosmic phenomenon that distorts narrowband radio waves, new research says.

For over six decades, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) has been tirelessly scanning the cosmos for signs of alien life. Despite its extensive efforts, the universe remains eerily ...

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 ...

A new study by researchers at the SETI Institute suggests stellar "space weather" could make radio signals from ...

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 ...

June 18, 2025, Mountain View, CA – The SETI Institute and SpaceX have launched a groundbreaking collaboration to help protect sensitive radio astronomy observations at the Allen Telescope Array (ATA) ...
