New SETI research suggests space weather like solar winds could be interfering with alien radio signals, making them harder to detect.

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

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.

Stellar plasma can smear alien radio signals before they escape their star system, making them harder for astronomers to detect.

Chalk up another victory for “Conan the Bacterium”—a rugged germ that fresh research suggests could conquer the solar system.

In Amiri’s calculations, Dyson spheres around white dwarfs tend to produce cooler, fainter thermal emission that peaks in the near- to mid-infrared, while M-dwarf cases can radiate more strongly but ...
