Bijgewerkte formule over buitenaardse intelligentie suggereert dat we echt alleen zijn in de Melkweg

Een aanpassing van de beroemde Drake-vergelijking zou de schattingen van intelligente beschavingen in onze Melkweg radicaal kunnen verfijnen.

There ARE better ways to communicate across vast reaches of the cosmos than sending gold-plated copper records: radio waves, for instance. That's what SETI is on the hunt for.

SETI has a lot of shared history with the Voyager record. One of the record's precursors was the Arecibo message, which is the kind of signal that SETI would love to find.

I just gave a talk about the ALMA telescope and its development program to my ex-colleagues at SKAO, and I just wanted to share two wonderful resources that I found. The first one, is the NRAO Archives, which includes things such as this interview with Frank Drake (yes, the one that came up with the Drake Equation for the probability of the existence of life we could communicate with in our galaxy):

RIP.

"On Friday, the family of astronomer Frank Drake announced that he passed away peacefully at 92 in his California home, near the site of his final academic position at the University of California, Santa Cruz. [...] Drake is probably best known for an equation that bears his name and his subsequent involvement in SETI efforts"
