Using the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS), astronomers have discovered a new super-Earth exoplanet orbiting a star located about 83 light years away. The newfound alien world is slightly ...

NASA’s SPARCS spacecraft has just sent back its first images, marking a major milestone in the mission to study low-mass ...

A new study by the SETI Institute suggests that the alien signals might be right here, surrounding us all of the time, and we're just unable to pick them out.

In a series of experiments at Johns Hopkins University, Lily Zhao fired tiny samples of a microorganism with a room-sized gas ...

For four decades, many SETI experiments have focused on finding sharp spikes in frequency but the new study says signals may not stay narrow as they travel away from their home system.

In a contemporary Hollywood that often treats alien contact as catastrophe, “Project Hail Mary” fuses intergalactic bonds to reframe encounters as collaboration. Two strangers from distant worlds ...

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

Stellar plasma can smear alien radio signals before they escape their star system, making them harder for astronomers to detect.

For the decades that scientists have been looking for alien signals through a work known as SETI, they have tended to look for spikes in frequency. Such signals are thought to be unlikely to be caused ...

Chalk up another victory for “Conan the Bacterium”—a rugged germ that fresh research suggests could conquer the solar system.

Avi Loeb, who challenged scientists on the true origin of 3I/ATLAS, reckons alien life form will make contact with us soon ...

The interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS was the third object ever discovered in our solar system that originated from another star system. Despite a viral conspiracy theory, NASA officials have repeatedly ...
