SETI may have missed alien signals for 60 years because stellar plasma smears transmissions into noise, a new Astrophysical Journal study finds.

No alien signals have been detected from an interstellar, cigar-shaped space rock discovered travelling through our Solar System in October, researchers listening for evidence of extraterrestrial ...

A study suggests that stellar plasma may distort alien signals, complicating SETI's search for extraterrestrial life by pushing signals below detection thresholds.
