Researchers may have finally traced 1977’s famous extraterrestrial anomaly back toward massive, naturally occurring hydrogen ...

Astronomers have discovered the brightest fast radio burst ever detected and traced it to a nearby galaxy using a new network of CHIME Outrigger telescopes. The flash, nicknamed RBFLOAT, lasted only a ...

Radio telescopes let you study the universe by collecting faint radio waves from distant objects. To see extremely small targets, such as the regions around supermassive black holes, those telescopes ...

For 10 months, a SETI Institute-led team watched pulsar PSR J0332+5434 (also called B0329+54) to study how its radio signal "twinkles" as it passes through gas between the star and Earth. The team ...

New SETI research suggests space weather like solar winds could be interfering with alien radio signals, making them harder ...

Kevin Bandura, an engineer in the West Virginia University Benjamin M. Statler College of Engineering and Mineral Resources, designs radio telescope technology to help astronomers understand the ...

Two huge radio telescopes have given scientists a rare look beneath the surface of the moon. Signals beamed from the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico — the world's largest radio dish, with a ...

Astronomers have discovered the first radio signals from a unique category of dying stars, called Type Ibn supernovae, and these signals offer new insights into how massive stars meet their demise.

As humans began to explore outer space in the latter half of the 20th century, radio waves proved a powerful tool. Scientists could send out radio waves to communicate with satellites, rockets and ...
