Are we alone in the Universe?
This fundamental question has propelled the curiosity of writers and scientists alike for hundreds of years.
A recent blog by Chenoa Tremblay
describes work undertaken with the Murchison Widefield Array to search
for techno-signatures from stellar systems in our Galaxy.
No evidence for advanced civilizations was found, but this
was the largest survey of its kind to date and paves the way for
more extensive studies with SKA pathfinders, and the
Square Kilometre Array itself.
