Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. For decades, humanity has scoured the cosmos for any signs that we aren't alone in the universe. But now, researchers at the SETI ...

Astronomers searching for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence may have been missing alien signals in part of the radio spectrum that has not recently been explored.

Researchers say we haven't found aliens because we have been tuned in to the wrong radio channel.

The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) has yet to detect alien technosignatures like radio waves, but the cosmos is vast, and there are plenty of places left to look. New research ...

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.

K2-18b is one of the most promising worlds for the search for extraterrestrial life, so astronomers conducted an unusually powerful radio survey using both the VLA and MeerKAT telescopes. Advanced ...

Astronomers have been scanning the skies for alien radio signals for decades, but so far they’ve heard nary a peep (with one possible exception). But according to a recent study, that could be because ...

Could the interstellar object 3I/ATLAS exhibit technosignatures, or signals of alien technology? This is what a recent study published in The Astronomical Journal hopes to address as a team of ...
