SETI researchers are advancing techniques to detect extraterrestrial intelligence, from analyzing mysterious radio signals that have puzzled astronomers for decades to investigating interstellar visitors as potential alien technology. New frameworks address why we haven't found alien signals yet, while astronomers develop better methods to see through cosmic clouds obscuring potentially habitable worlds.
·SETI released a major document outlining protocols and frameworks for detecting and responding to extraterrestrial intelligence
·A rare interstellar visitor triggered investigation into whether it could be alien technology rather than natural phenomenon
·Astronomers are developing techniques to peer through clouds that hide exoplanets and potentially habitable worlds
·Research suggests the Fermi Paradox—why we detect no alien signals—may be explained by detection limitations and signal propagation
·The SKA radio telescope is being positioned as a powerful tool for searching for extraterrestrial signals across the cosmos
