Avi Loeb proposes a new research framework called SETAI (Search for Extraterrestrial Artificial Intelligence) in response to concerns about AI existential risk, drawing parallels between human AI development and the possibility of detecting advanced non-human intelligence.

A Guardian podcast explores the Fermi Paradox—why humanity has not detected advanced alien civilizations despite the universe's age and vastness. The episode, adapted from a Columbia Global Reports book, examines theories about extraterrestrial life and technology.

Avi Loeb proposes a new observatory concept for detecting and imaging UAP orbs, described as glowing entities several meters in scale, identified as the most mysterious phenomena in recently declassified PURSUE data.

MIT researchers propose that a theoretical form of extraterrestrial life could survive in Venus's acidic cloud environment through novel biochemistry.

Scientists have proposed a novel detection methodology that could identify extraterrestrial life without presupposing it shares characteristics with Earth-based biology. The test aims to broaden the scope of astrobiology research beyond carbon-based organisms.

This article explores the Fermi Paradox—the apparent contradiction between the vast number of stars and galaxies and the lack of detected alien civilizations—examining why we have not yet made contact with extraterrestrial life despite the universe's age and size.

The Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics released an unprecedented comprehensive catalog of high-energy universe observations from the eROSITA mission.

Researchers propose that SETI's search for extraterrestrial intelligence may benefit from examining higher radio frequencies rather than the bands currently monitored.
