For more than two decades, millions of volunteers turned their home computers into a planet-scale telescope, donating idle processing power to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence through SETI@home. That effort ended in 2020—but the data never stopped speaking. Now, UC Berkeley scientists have taken a fresh, rigorous look at the vast SETI@home archive and identified around 100 intriguing signals that warrant closer scrutiny. In this SETI Live, host Beth Johnson is joined by Eric Korpela

Whales have been on this planet for longer than humans have walked upright. Are they intelligent? Linguists contend that even the most intelligent non-human animals lack a communication system that could be called language. But could whales prove an exception? Biologists have studied whales for decades and quickly realized that they lead complex social lives. For example, sperm whales have the animal kingdom’s biggest brains, six times larger than ours. They live in female-dominated social netwo

Part of the SETI Institute's monthly Lecture series, SETI Talks Extremophiles are organisms that live in extreme environments on Earth. Scientists have investigated their ability to survive to high temperatures, UV radiation, salty environments and places that are inhospitable for humans and most creatures on Earth. By studying conditions under which life can thrive, we hope to understand life elsewhere – where to look for it and what it could look like -- or simply to hypothesize if it would be

For decades, many scientists have relied on the "hard steps" model to suggest that intelligent life is rare — the improbable result of a series of unlikely evolutionary leaps. But new research by postdoctoral researcher and geobiologist Dr. Daniel Mills from the University of Munich challenges that idea, and the implications are game-changing for the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. In a recent SETI Live episode, Senior Planetary Astronomer Dr. Franck Marchis and Dr. Mills discussed how
