(Natural News) Recently released and formerly secret United States files revealed that the Department of Defense (DOD) has investigated the best possible path to get in touch with aliens and speak with a possible 4,590 extraterrestrial civilizations. The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) document, which was acquired by the Sun as part of a huge Freedom of Information request, is […]

(Natural News) The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has partnered with scientists working on the Breakthrough Listen project in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). The team will use NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) to identify “light-curve anomalies” and detect “technosignatures.” Breakthrough Listen is a $100 million SETI initiative considered as the most comprehensive search for alien […]

(Natural News) Anders Sandberg of the University of Oxford suggests looking for hypothetical star-sized structures called Dyson spheres to find aliens. He notes that if advanced alien civilizations do exist, they may have built one of these spheres and used it as a supercomputer, solar-capture technology or habitat. “I think you can find a bunch of very different […]

(Natural News) Researchers from Cornell University and Lehigh University in Pennsylvania have identified more than 1,000 stars that might be hosting exoplanets with a good view of Earth. In a study published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, the researchers said that these stars are in a direct line of sight to the planet. […]

(Natural News) A team of international scientists from the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) is preparing to use the world’s biggest radio telescope –  the Five-hundred-meter Aperture radio Telescope (FAST) in China – boosting international efforts to find alien life. Opened in 2016, FAST has so far been used exclusively by Chinese scientists. That’s set to change […]

(Natural News) Aliens might have already found us, and they’ve been on the lookout ever since. American physicist James Benford proposes that alien “lurkers” may have set up probes on near-Earth objects (NEOs) that follow an orbital pattern similar to Earth. What’s more, these co-orbitals are very close to us, bound gravitationally not just to the sun but also […]

(Natural News) Some astronomers believe that extraterrestrial beings are using extremely powerful flashlights to try and get humanity’s attention. If these supposedly advanced aliens are doing that, Earth finally has a way to find out with the help of the Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System (VERITAS), a collection of four telescopes, each 40 feet […]

(Natural News) Researchers who are seeking out signs of alien life can now compare their findings with the results of earlier studies thanks to an online tool developed by the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) Institute. The newly released research tool will allow people from around the world to contribute their evidence that we are not alone in […]

(Natural News) The term extraterrestrial used to stand for something truly great. Now, as far as the general public is concerned, it has all but lost its meaning. The same applies to the related phrase, extraterrestrial intelligence. Perhaps both terms just don’t roll off the tongue. No matter the reason, it’s quite clear that both words […]
