New SETI research suggests space weather like solar winds could be interfering with alien radio signals, making them harder ...

A visitor from another star system is creating excitement in the astronomy community. The comet 3I/ATLAS which was first spotted in July 2025 contains chemical clues that scientists can use to ...

For four decades, many SETI experiments have focused on finding sharp spikes in frequency but the new study says signals may not stay narrow as they travel away from their home system.

The researchers who scan the skies for radio signals from extraterrestrials are now rethinking their approach.

Radio silence has long puzzled those searching for extraterrestrial intelligence, but the answer might lie much closer to the source of potential signals than previously thought. Conditions around ...

Stellar plasma can smear alien radio signals before they escape their star system, making them harder for astronomers to detect.

A new study shows that stars with low magnetic activity are likely to support exoplanetary systems, making the hunt for these ...

Astronomers have spotted something unusual in a comet passing through our Solar System. 3I/ATLAS, only the third confirmed interstellar visitor ever s.

Unlike our Moon, they can keep water in oceans liquid for more than 4 billion years.

Comets are often treated as leftovers, but sometimes the leftovers become the primary focus. That is the case with 3I/ATLAS, only the third known interstellar object seen crossing the solar system, ...

Scientists are scrambling to explain why interstellar visitor 3I/ATLAS is carrying life's chemical building blocks at concentrations never before seen, and it makes its final pass through our cosmic n ...

Turbulent plasma near distant stars could blur ultra-narrow signals before they leave their home star systems - making them difficult to detect.
