This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 2010, fifty years to the month after the first experiment in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), scholars from a range of disciplines—including astronomy, mathematics, anthropology, history, and cognitive science—gathered at NASA's biennial Astrobiology Science Conference (AbSciCon) for a series of sessions on the search for intelligent life. This book highlights the most recent developments in SETI discussed at that conference, emphasizing the ways that SETI has grown since its inception. The volume covers three broad themes: First, leading researchers examine the latest developments in observational SETI programs, as well as innovative proposals for new search strategies and novel approaches to signal processing. Second, both proponents and opponents of "Active SETI" debate whether humankind should be transmitting intentional signals to other possible civilizations, rather than only listening. Third, constructive proposals for interstellar messages are juxtaposed with critiques that ask whether any meaningful exchange is possible with an independently evolved civilization, given the constraints of contact at interstellar distances, where a round-trip exchange could take centuries or millennia. As we reflect on a half-century of SETI research, we are reminded of the expansion of search programs made possible by technological and conceptual advances. In this spirit of ongoing exploration, the contributors to this book advocate a diverse range of approaches to make SETI increasingly more powerful and effective, as we embark on the next half-century of searching for intelligence beyond Earth.

This book was released on 2011-02-14 with total page 541 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of essays written by the very scientists and engineers who have led, and continue to lead, the scientific quest known as SETI, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Divided into three parts, the first section, ‘The Spirit of SETI Past’, written by the surviving pioneers of this then emerging discipline, reviews the major projects undertaken during the first 50 years of SETI science and the results of that research. In the second section, ‘The Spirit of SETI Present’, the present-day science and technology is discussed in detail, providing the technical background to contemporary SETI instruments, experiments, and analytical techniques, including the processing of the received signals to extract potential alien communications. In the third and final section, ‘The Spirit of SETI Future’, the book looks ahead to the possible directions that SETI will take in the next 50 years, addressing such important topics as interstellar message construction, the risks and assumptions of interstellar communications, when we might make contact, what aliens might look like and what is likely to happen in the aftermath of such a contact.

This book was released on 2024-01-03 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), discusses its origins, and explores various research methods and resources for enthusiasts. It assesses SETI’s scientific legitimacy and ideas over the past three to four decades, arguing for complementary efforts in interstellar travel, alien societies, and intelligent life. As well as this, it raises the question of whether life on Earth is from an alien system, discusses hypothetical scenarios for successful communication, and discusses the pros and cons of radio astronomy. This book also discusses the Drake equation and its significance in finding alien civilizations in the universe or multiverses, and explains evidential signals, distributed computing, AI algorithms, and data categorization techniques. This book proposes and debates on an estimation of SETI using hyperbolic chances and views SETI in connection with parallel universes, bubble universe collision and tetra toroidal form.

Book excerpt: If you are interested in how researchers plan to search the heavens for signs of intelligent life, you should have this book. SETI 2020 is a new, and remarkably comprehensive study of how scientists busy with the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) should direct their efforts between now and the year 2020. Distilling the work of dozens of top SETI experts, astronomers, and technology mavens, this book gives an overview of the problem of finding evidence for extraterrestrial technologies, and how to best address it. New radio telescopes consisting of large arrays of relatively small antennas are proposed and detailed. So are new types of antennas that can survey the entire sky at once. Of particular interest is the extensive treatment of optical SETI -- the search for signals beamed our way using high-powered, pulsed lasers or their equivalent. A book that's interesting for both the layman and the technically sophisticated, SETI 2020 is the definitive publication in this fascinating field.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What are the implications for human society, and for our institutions of higher learning, of the discovery of a sophisticated extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) operating on and around Earth? This book explores this timely question from a multidisciplinary perspective. It considers scientific, philosophical, theological, and interdisciplinary ways of thinking about the question, and it represents all viewpoints on how likely it is that an ETI is already operating here on Earth. The book’s contributors represent a wide range of academic disciplines in their formal training and later vocations, and, upon reflection on the book’s topic, they articulate a diverse range of insights into how ETI will impact humankind. It is safe to say that any contact or communication with ETI will not be merely a game changer for human society, but it also will be a paradigm changer. It makes sense for human beings to prepare themselves now for this important transition.

Download or read book The Origins written by Miles Augustus Navarr and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2024-02-13 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are many fundamental issues, whether scientific, cultural, religious, and even philosophical, that we accept as fact or truth, simply because our peers have done so. Our peers have been wrong before. For two thousand years Euclidean geometry and geo-centricity was the absolute truth in scientific and religious communities. Law of some of these issues concern the origins of our domain. Origin of the universe, origin of life on earth, origin of Homo-sapiens, origin of what we categorize as civilization and origin of religion, particularly monotheistic religions. This book has endeavored to investigate these five very fundamental issues, in simple and non-scientific language as far as conceivable. To most people, these subject matters have very little or no consequence in their daily lives, and for this reason they are not explored, nor merit any time contemplating. But they are so innate and engrained in our subconscious that most people must have pondered, reflected, or discussed one or more of these issues at least a few times in their lifetime. The remarkable fact is that despite their vital and elemental relevance, people simply accept and consent to what the authorities propagate. That maybe the most convenient approach, but none of the mainline theories, regardless of where they came from, Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, The Pope, Carl Sagan, Steven Hawking or any other scientists, philosophers or religious authorities are simply theories, not proven and thus still mysteries worth investigating. The book does not try to find answers. It simply investigates the flaws, inadequacies, and weaknesses in some of these theories and where possible, to explore other alternatives and options. The only purpose, and indeed hope in writing this book is to create a fertile domain in the mind of the readers, to ask question, albeit “The Right” questions. “Where there is consciousness, there is doubt.”

Download or read book Astrobiology written by Julian Chela-Flores and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The general topic of this book concerns the origin, evolution, distribution, and destiny of life in the Universe. It discusses the transition from inert matter to cellular life and its evolution to fully developed intelligent beings, and also the possibility of life occurring elsewhere, particularly in other environments in our own and other solar systems. The theoretical framework of Astrobiology may be probed with a forthcoming series of space missions, which at the time of writing are being planned for the next 10 to 15 years. Advanced extraterrestrial life can also be probed by means of radioastronomy in the well-established project of search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Astrobiology pays special attention to the robust growth in our capacity to search for microorganisms, as well as signals of extraterrestrial life, with recent significant technological progress in planetary science and radioastronomy. The progress of the main space agencies is highlighted. Audience: This volume is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as researchers in the many areas of basic, earth, and life sciences that contribute to the study of chemical evolution and the origin of life.
