One Report According to the report, this discovery was made by a team of Chenoa Tremblay of the SETI Institute in California and MWA director Steven Tingey of Curtin University in Australia. They focused on a 30-degree field of view in the constellation of Vela. There are 2,880 galaxies here. Scientists have measured 1,317 of them.
According to the report, they have not detected any extraterrestrial signal in the initial search. However, in the study that has been published, the researchers have said that they can detect a signal with a transmitter power of 7 x 10^22 watts at a frequency of 100 MHz.
You may find these things technically difficult, but the search of scientists is largely dependent on signals. Actually, the places where scientists are searching are so far away that our telescopes will not be able to capture anything concrete. In such a situation, those signals floating in the universe, which come from other galaxies, are being probed.
SETI has been searching for aliens for more than 64 years. Most of its work has been focused on our galaxy called the Milky Way. However, now SETI scientists are looking for extraterrestrial signals in other galaxies.
A similar discovery was made in 2015, when the Glimpsing Heat from Alien Technologies (G-HAT) project surveyed 1 lakh galaxies. NASA’s Wide-field Infrared Survey Telescope (WISE) was used in that work. However, scientists did not get any major information. Last year, scientists from Taiwan’s National Chung Hsing University said that there cannot be more than one civilization within a radius of 3 billion light years from us.
This means scientists will have to ‘peek’ further away and also change frequencies and transmitter power.
