How #airports like Heathrow and Gatwick could help #aliens spot #Earth
The study explored how hidden #electromagnetic leakage might look to extraterrestrials up to 200 light-years from Earth, if they had state-of-the-art #radio #telescopes like our own. Theoretically, it also suggests this is how far we would be able to look to spot aliens who have evolved to use a similar level of technology.

How airports like Heathrow and Gatwick could help aliens spot Earth

London, UK (SPX) Jul 11, 2025 - Radar systems used by civilian airports and military operations are inadvertently revealing our existence to potential advanced alien civilisations, new research shows. The study explored how

📶 ⚡ Our researchers, in collaboration with colleagues from Harvard University, have engineered a chip that can convert between electromagnetic pulses in the terahertz and optical ranges on the same device. Their integrated design could enable the development of devices for ultrafast telecommunications, ranging, spectroscopy, and computing.

Got pulled down a rabbit hole learning about Schumann resonances, which are electromagnetic wave resonances in the atmosphere because the area between the earth's surface and the ionosphere acts as a spherical waveguide. The energy input is from lightning, which is practically continuous (50 strikes/s) when viewed worldwide. The fundamental frequency involved is 7.83 Hz, with various weaker harmonics above that.

How I got pulled into the rabbit hole...

Of *course* people are selling woo / magic / New Age B.S. around this stuff. But I'm sorry to say, your little trace-printed-on-a-PCB antenna supposedly broadcasting on this frequency to boost its "natural healing properties" is not going to be an effective radiator at sub-8 Hz, even if you turn it into a spiral to make it longer. The wavelength of the 7.83 Hz fundamental is ~38,000 km, so a basic quarter-wave antenna should be >9000 km long...

I just wanted to let you all know that 30 May is my last day on the current @ARDC grant and that you can reach me at @wb2ifs and linkedin.com after that date. I'm going to decommission this profile.

It has been fun and a pleasure to collaborate with you all, and I look forward to continuing collaborations #Hamradio. #amateurradio #STEMeducation #STEAM #STEMM #scienceeduction #electromagnetic #spectrum.
