SETI
WEBSETI is an acronym for the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence. It is an effort to detect evidence of technological civilizations that may exist elsewhere in the universe, particularly in our Galaxy. There are potentially billions of locations outside our Solar System that may host life. With our current technology, we have some ability to discover evidence of cosmic habitation, and, in ...

LaserSETI - SETI Institute
WEBA revolutionary effort to monitor the sky for laser flashes is ramping up. Based on a new approach to detecting such flashes, the SETI Institute’s LaserSETI program will build a network of instruments to monitor the entire night sky. This would be an unprecedented capability to search for manifestations of sophisticated intelligence beyond Earth.
