The news last week that a concerted scientific search for extraterrestrial intelligence by the SETI Institute in California has resumed raises fundamental questions: If we made contact, what would we say? And what answers would we anticipate? The SETI Institute has begun an online outreach program called Earth Speaks to solicit messages. Dimitra Atri, a [...]

Have you ever given any thought to intergalactic SETI? On the face of it, the idea seems absurd — we have been doing SETI in one form or another since the days of Project Ozma and without result. If we can’t pick up radio signals from nearby stars that tell us of extraterrestrial civilizations, how [...]

The 1.8 Gigayear Gap -A Galaxy Classic

By starling on  From dailygalaxy.com
Are we the lone sentient life in the universe? So far, we have no evidence to the contrary, and yet the odds that not one single other planet has evolved intelligent life would appear, from a statistical standpoint, to be quite small. There are an estimated 250 billion (2.5 x 10¹¹ ) stars in the Milky Way alone, and over 70 sextillion (7 x 10²² ) in the visible universe, and many of them are surrounded by multiple planets. The shear size of the known universe is staggeringly and inconceivably...Read Full Story

It is safest to assume therefore, that they are out there and to consider the manner in which this may impinge upon human society." Arthur C. Clarke, physicist and author of 2001: A Space Odyssey One of the greatest philosophical and scientific challenges that currently confronts humanity is the unsolved...Read Full Story
