New ET Search Method: Planetary Heat Signatures
Until recently, one of the ultimate mysteries of the universe -- how many
civilizations may exist on planets orbiting other stars in the Milky Way Galaxy -- relied on the possibility of detecting intelligent beings by
radio signals. Now a team of astronomers, engineers, and physicists from the University of Hawaii, the University of Freiburg, and elsewhere has proposed a new and powerful technique to search for intelligent life.
Rather than looking for radio waves, the team suggests searching for the heat
signatures of nearby planets, which requires a giant telescope that
could detect infrared radiation directly from an exoplanet, thus
revealing the presence of a civilization.
