Astronomers may have already scanned millions of more stars than they thought, a realization that might lead to new ways to hunt for extraterrestrial radio signals.

Most radio SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) projects concentrate on frequencies from 1.42 to 1.66 GHz.

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 ...

One of the longest-standing techniques in humanity’s search for life beyond Earth may be causing scientists to miss alien signals entirely, a new study finds. Since the very beginnings of the search ...

Yet the key insight lies not in what was found, but in what the analysis revealed about the scale of previous searches.

The “Wow!” signal is one of our best pieces of evidence for aliens, but researchers are building a compelling case for a more natural source. In a series of papers, astronomers have compared the "Wow!
