A pair of MIT researchers has proposed a radical method for making our presence known in the universe. In a new feasibility study, the team says it could be possible to use laser technology as a ...
If intelligent alien civilizations do exist, scientists think they could be using powerful flashlights to communicate with us. Astronomers have started to explore the idea that aliens could be trying ...
The KIC 8462852 star was first spotted by online astronomers Planet Hunters in 2015, which appeared to be dipping in brightness. Astronomers struggled to explain why the star’s brightness was ...
Experts still debate whether sending signals into space is actually a good idea – or whether it will alert potential invaders to our presence. But a new plan suggests that we could create a ‘laser ...
Explore how physicists are using light beams in the search for extraterrestrial life within the Andromeda Galaxy's trillion stars. Physicists at the University of California, Santa Barbara are taking ...
A GIANT telescope could use a powerful laser to tap out messages to alien stargazers, a new study has suggested. The combination of a laser of between one and two megawatts and a 100-150 ft telescope ...
A mysterious red beam pictured close to the International Space Station (ISS) proves that an alien mothership is trying to destroy it, according to UFO enthusiasts. NASA footage shows the red light in ...
A laser cloak could hide Earth from potential alien invaders. Professor David Kipping, an astronomer at Columbia University in New York, has said the relatively simple concept could make the world ...
Scientists have gone back to scanning a pulsating star from a distant galaxy in hope of finding laser emissions that could provide more information about it. The star known as ‘KIC 8462852’ or ...
Stephen Hawking warned that messaging aliens was a really terrible idea – similar to putting up a sign saying, ‘ATTACK HERE’. But scientists from MIT say that we could use existing laser technology to ...
Scientists have plans to use telescopes as a way to signal our existence to alien worlds, perhaps putting us in contact with E.T., or the predator or even the engineers from Alien - which should end ...
The technology already exists to create a planetary porch light to tell aliens we're at home A GIANT telescope could use a powerful laser to tap out messages to alien stargazers, a new study has ...
