Most of us know Carl Sagan as the host of “Cosmos” and author of "Contact,” but his scientific legacy goes much deeper. His work shaped our understanding of #space, #climatechange and the search for extraterrestrial life.
He would have turned 90 today. #CarlSagan #ScienceLegacy

Today in the UCLA SETI course, we will hear additional final project presentations, including: (1) extension of our deDoppler tree algorithm to larger drift rates, (2) coherent dechirping of candidate signals, (3) improvements to UCLA SETI survey database, and several others.

Today in the UCLA SETI course, we will hear the first two final project presentations: (1) speed optimization of signal filtering and (2) a comparison of 1D and 2D noise estimation in dynamic spectra. 👽

SETI observations at the @GreenBankObserv are going really well. We will upload thousands of never-before-seen signals to arewealone.earth soon!
Several students in the Spring 2024 UCLA SETI course are participating in the observations remotely. seti.ucla.edu
Guess who made the semi-finals in the Grad Slam ("a campus and UC-wide competition that showcases and awards the best 3-minute research presentations by graduate students")? UCLA SETI's Megan Li! 🙌👽
Did you miss our First Anniversary Webinar? Never fear, the recording is here! 👽🛸

On #GivingTuesday, consider supporting UCLA SETI, which has engaged approximately 150 students and 25,000 volunteer scientists in the search for cosmic companionship. giving.ucla.edu/Campaign/Don…

It was fun to talk to @SquigglyVolcano about all things SETI.
NEW: Remember those UFO hearings at Congress this summer? That’s not how we’re going to find intelligent alien life.
Don’t let the kooks distract you—there is a serious effort to find ET. For @voxdotcom, I explain how that hunt is going (click the pic): vox.com/science/23911440/set…

Latest from UCLA SETI: new article in press, modified Drake Figure of Merit, transmitter prevalence estimates, and the upcoming partial solar eclipse. eepurl.com/iBmmZI
We love the fact that arewealone.earth participants are examining the data described in this article with a fine-tooth comb!
The latest UCLA SETI manuscript (arxiv.org/abs/2308.02712) includes a modified Drake Figure of Merit for radio SETI search volume calculations and other goodies.
