Scientists study 100 possible alien radio signals from collapsed Arecibo Observatory, ending groundbreaking 21-year search
A crowd-sourced search for alien intelligence called SETI@Home is in its final stages, analyzing 100 radio signals of interest using the world's largest radio telescope.
Enthusiasts used their home computers to search for ET—scientists are homing in on 100 signals they found
For 21 years, between 1999 and 2020, millions of people worldwide loaned UC Berkeley scientists their computers to search for signs of advanced civilizations in our galaxy.
Millions Joined SETI@home Project, Now Astronomers Zero In on 100 Promising Signals
SETI@home, the pioneering distributed-computing project launched in 1999 that enlisted millions of volunteers to analyze radio signals from space, produced some 12 billion detections -- brief bursts of energy that stood out from background noise -- as it combed through observations recorded at the now-defunct Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. The post Millions Joined SETI@home Project, Now Astronomers Zero In on 100 Promising Signals appeared …
Scientists Narrow Down 100 Mysterious Radio Signals In Landmark Search For Alien Intelligence
Scientists are closely examining 100 unusual radio signals that could potentially hint at extraterrestrial intelligence, marking the final chapter of one of the most ambitious alien-hunting projects ever undertaken. The signals were identified from vast datasets collected by the now-collapsed Arecibo Observatory and analysed through SETI@Home, a pioneering global citizen science initiative launched in 1999. Over more than two decades, SETI@Home …
