Episode 16 ︱Delving into the Thermodynamics of Alien Technologies with Jason Wright
Update: 2023-07-13
Description
Blast off with Jason Wright, a professor of astronomy and astrophysics at Penn State and director of the Penn State Extraterrestrial Intelligence Center. We delve into the latest scientific methods in the search for technosignatures or evidence of extraterrestrial technologies. Coined by the astronomer Jill Tarter, a co-founder of the SETI Institute, technosignatures encompass communicative signals such as radio waves and laser emissions from other stars across and beyond the electromagnetic spectrum, artifacts like artificial satellites or space megastructures in and beyond our solar system, and other detectable signs of technological life beyond the Earth, like evidence of artificially induced environmental changes on another planet.
Listen in as we discuss the relevance of the Drake Equation and the Kardashev Scale in today’s search for ETIs, the significance of discerning Earth’s technosignatures, and the latest predictions of identifying an extraterrestrial technosignature within our lifetime!
