Some of them may even be advanced enough to communicate with us. According to a new study in The Astrophysical […]

Astronomers Detect Isotopes in Distant Alien World’s Atmosphere–10 Reasons Why This Is Huge By monitoring the cosmos with a radio telescope array, a Cornell University-led international team of scientists has detected radio bursts emanating from the constellation Boötes. The signal could be the first radio emission collected from a planet beyond our solar system. The team, led by Cornell postdoctoral […]
