Dotting a rocky plain north of Mount Lassen, 42 radio antennas are ****ed like ears toward the sky, being readied for an expanded hunt for life beyond Earth. The Allen Telescope Array is slowly coming together as the new listening post for SETI, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence.

Here at the Hat Creek Radio Observatory, silver-snouted antennas soon will take up the quest for a technological culture that is audacious or lonely or hopeful enough to deliberately beam a signal into the beyond.

"For selfish reasons, I look forward to the day when Frank Drake and his associates announce the reception of intelligent, intentional signals from outer space" Leonard Nimoy, who played Mr. Spock in the "Star Trek" television and movie series

On April 8, 1960, astronomer Frank Drake carried out the first Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, or SETI, at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory in Greenbank, W.Va.
As part of "Project Ozma," he listened to two relatively "nearby" stars for two weeks at one frequency.
At 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, March 31, Drake will give a public talk in Barrow. It will have been 48 years since his first SETI search.

Title: SETI and muon collider
Authors: Z.K. Silagadze

Intense neutrino beams that accompany muon colliders can be used for interstellar communications. The presence of multi-TeV extraterrestrial muon collider at several light-years distance can be detected after one year run of IceCube type neutrino telescopes, if the neutrino beam is directed towards the Earth. This opens a new avenue in SETI: search for extraterrestrial muon colliders.

For scientists like Seth Shostack, the scale of the Universe means it is nearly impossible that human beings are alone.
The sheer number of stars makes it virtually inevitable that there are other planets around other stars that are just like Earth - planets with atmospheres, oceans of liquid water and ambient conditions conducive to life.
