Such a fun video for nerds who like signal analysis etc.
The Alien Signal That Looked Intelligent

Meine erste Runde #Seti und ich hasse es. 🤬
4 Stunden spielen und ein Frustmoment nach dem anderen. Furchtbar. Bin genervt bis zum Saturn

I taught Linds #SETI last night. She caught on quickly and only lost by 10 points. I really liked 2 player but I am curious if at 3 and 4 there is too much downtime between turns?
I played Lost Ruins of Arnak at 4 recently and I was a little bored between turns, especially if I already had an idea of what I was going to do next turn. I could see SETI being similar?
I have been waiting for a while to finally get my hands on #SETI
I played my first solo game today and it was everything I hoped it would be. I lost on the easiest difficulty but only by a handful. I left a probe struggling in space and wasted my last data analysis.
But I am totally hooked and impressed so far!
The SETI Institute invites nominations for the 2026 Jill Tarter Award for Innovation in the Search for Life Beyond Earth, an international honor recognizing individuals whose ideas, work, or leadership have meaningfully advanced humanity’s efforts to understand life and intelligence in the Universe. Artists, journalists, media, scientists, educators, law & ethics, philosophers, and more – all disciplines are welcome.
“So, a successful detection means that it's possible to have a long future as a technological civilization. And I think that that's really worth going after. I don't expect them to solve our problems. What I do expect, if we succeed, to be inspired by knowing that somebody else made it through this technological adolescence, and we can too. We simply have to find the way. But we know there's an answer, and that's inspiring for me.”
— Jill Tarter, Director of the Center for SETI Research at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California
I suppose with the #twitastrophe ongoing, I should get around pinning an #introduction.
I'm Eric Korpela, an astrophysicist by training. My expertise is in interstellar matter (#ISM), UV instrumentation, radio instrumentation, and #SETI. I used to direct a small volunteer computing project called SETI@home (#setiathome). I'm semi-retired, and theoretically working 17 hours a week. In practice that turns into almost as many hours as I was working before I retired.
My posts here will often be unrelated to my work. I find it hard to be chatty about things that have exhausted me during the day. My short term life goal is to learn all that is knowable.
My non-work interests are #vintagecomputing #fishing #politics #vintagegaming #cocktails #food #beer #wine #NCAAFootball and #photography.
ist euch eigentlich schon mal aufgefallen, das die Geräte für die Suche nach intelligentem Leben alle von der Erde weg schauen ?
Das kann kein Zufall sein.
Ich liebe melodysheep und die Art, wie er ein so komplexes Thema aufbereitet hat: LIFE BEYOND: Chapter 1. Alien life, deep time, and our place in cosmic history (4K) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUelbSa-OkA
Vielleicht sind wir ja doch nicht alleine ...
Die wissenschaftliche Veröffentlichung "A deep-learning search for technosignatures from 820 nearby stars" beschäftigt sich mit der Suche nach technologischen Signaturen, die vielleicht nicht von der Menschheit sind, mittels Machine Learning Algorithmen.
Interessant wieviel Handarbeit da noch dabei ist, aber noch interessanter ist das vorläufige Ergebnis
