SETI Live: Searching for Extraterrestrial Civilizations with the Allen Telescope Array

Dr Wael Farah uses radio telescopes to search for, and study, radio transients and pulsars. Transient events include potential techno-signatures of extraterrestrial civilizations, appearing as anomalies in radio data. Other transient events also include objects called “Fast Radio Bursts” (FRBs), super-bright flashes of extragalactic origin but of unknown cause. Learn how Farah and Madeleine King, one of the REU (Research Experience for Undergraduates) students, have been using the ATA and how it may become one of the best instruments in the world for radio searches.
