Astronomers over the years have picked up dozens of "fast radio bursts" (FRBs) -- mysterious radio signals detected from an unknown part of the cosmos. But for only the second time, they have now found one that repeats itself, making it more likely that we might find out where they come from.

It is impossible to know when we will get our first contact and what this message will say, but we know that this discovery will have an ethical and political impact on our world. And then what will happen next? Will the detection of ET be dangerous or beneficial for humankind? Will it change everything, including our place in the universe or will we simply continue our life knowing that ‘We are not alone’? For more than four decades, astronomers have been searching for techno-signatures: signals coming from distant technological civilizations. The first SETI searches began in the 1960s by searching for extraterrestrial radio waves and have more recently expanded to include optical (visible) signals, such as powerful laser pulses. We know that, like technological progress, the search is also accelerating, evolving with the development of new antenna arrays and new networks of telescopes which will soon be capable of listening to the entire sky, everywhere, and all the time. To discuss these points, we invited four SETI researchers: Julia DeMarines, Astrobiologist and Science Communicator at the UC Berkeley SETI Research Center, Doug Vakoch, President of METI, Eliot Gillum, director of LASER SETI and Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer at the SETI Institute.

For the past half-century, humanity has been listening for alien radio transmissions but so far we appear to be the only ones broadcasting into the void. Astrobiologists now seek to narrow down the search by looking for other technological and biological signatures. In this video, I explore some of the methods by which they hope to do so and why the great silence of the universe is such a mystery.

Fast Radio Bursts, or FRBs are blasts of radio energy that hit Earth from outside the milky way galaxy, lasting only milliseconds before they disappear. Dr. Avi Loeb of Harvard University and Harvard Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics discusses the possibility that they could be leakage from highly powerful lasers pushing on light sails or other signs of advanced extraterrestrial intelligence. As well as the interstellar object known as Oumuamua and if it is a solar sail or alien probe. Avi Loeb also discusses what are the most dangerous and immediate threats to life on earth from space, asteroid collisions, solar flares including the carrington event, and black holes.

On November 16, 1974, humans sent their first message to the stars in an attempt to contact extraterrestrials. They did this using what was then the largest radio telescope in the world, located at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. A group of scientists led by Frank Drake and Carl Sagan sent their message to the M13 star cluster. The message was written in binary code and contained information about human DNA. It also included figures of a human, the solar system and the Arecibo telescope. The idea was that if any aliens were to receive the signal and figure out how to decode it, they would know where it came from. Because M13 is 25,000 light-years away, it will take 25,000 years for any M13 aliens to hear our message — if they are even out there. The Arecibo message is only one of several messages intended for extraterrestrials. We have also included messages on several spacecraft, such as Pioneer and Voyager.

Listen will undertake a major observing program using the new MeerKAT array in South Africa. MeerKAT combines 64 individual dishes as a single instrument to be used by teams from across the globe in pursuit of a range of science goals. Listen’s MeerKAT search for signs of extraterrestrial technology will operate 24 hours a day, seven days a week, operating in parallel with the other surveys. Listen's survey will examine a million individual stars in the quietest part of the radio spectrum, a factor of 1000 more targets than any previous search.

We talk to SKA Project Scientist Evan Keane about the significance of the discovery of 20 new Fast Radio Bursts - doubling the known number of these mysterious objects - by ASKAP, one of the SKA precursor telescopes in Australia.

Scientists using a Western Australian radio telescope say they’ve significantly increased their detections of fast radio bursts.

Researchers used machine learning to discover 72 new fast radio bursts from a mysterious source 3 billion light years from Earth. Geek.com reports that in radio astronomy, fast radio bursts are high-energy astrophysical phenomenon of unknown origin; the bright pulses of radio emission last mere milliseconds and are thought to originate from distant galaxies. Their source, however, remains unclear. But Breakthrough Listen, a SETI project led by the University of California, Berkeley, hopes AI can help clarify. according to Andrew Siemion, director of the Berkeley SETI Research Center and principal investigator of Breakthrough Listen, “This work is exciting not just because it helps us understand the dynamic behavior of fast radio bursts in more detail, but also because of the promise it shows for using machine learning to detect signals missed by classical algorithms." https://www.geek.com/tech/ai-detects-more-mysterious-cosmic-radio-bursts-1751925/?source http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com

Machine learning algorithms applied to Listen data from the Green Bank Telescope found new pulses from the mysterious repeating source FRB 121102. These new bursts were missed by conventional search methods, and are helping to answer questions about the origin of FRB 121102. Machine learning algorithms are also being applied to help Listen search for new kinds of candidate signals from extraterrestrial intelligence.

The Square Kilometre Array is an ambitious project to create a gigantic telescope from two enormous arrays of smaller antennas located in South Africa and Australia. The huge collecting area of the SKA will give it unprecedented sensitivity, enabling it to search for faint signals from far away sources. For SETI, it will be able to detect civilizations on other planets orbiting other stars, even if they are no more technologically advanced than our own civilization, and are not deliberately messaging us. In this video, we sit down with some of the scientists and engineers who are spearheading the SKA project, at the SKA headquarters in Jodrell Bank, near Manchester, England.

Animation of a star exploding into a supernova and fueling a gamma-ray burst. Astronomers caught the enduring "afterglow" of one of these cataclysmic explosions with both ALMA and the VLA for the first time. The rebound, or reverse shock, triggered by the GRB’s powerful jets slamming into surrounding debris, lasted thousands of times longer than expected, giving astronomers an unprecedented glimpse into the structure and dynamics of the jets.

Fast Radio Bursts Vicky Kaspi CIFAR Fellow, Cosmology & Gravity program; McGill University, Department of Physics & McGill Space Institute This lecture was part of the "Untangling the Cosmos" symposium hosted by CIFAR in partnership with the Ontario Science Centre on May 17, 2017.

HD1080p Reinout van Weeren (CfA) Hosted: Charles Alcock (CfA) LOFAR is the world’s largest and most sensitive low-frequency radio telescope. It is currently carrying out a monumental survey of the entire northern sky. In this talk I will discuss how we use LOFAR to unravel the physics of particle acceleration and cosmic rays in galaxy clusters, the largest gravitationally bound objects in our Universe.

Learn about the new mysterious cosmic phenomenon—Fast Radio Bursts—and the revolutionary new radio telescope that will soon enable astronomers worldwide to make major progress in understanding them. This lecture was presented by the Minnesota Institute for Astrophysics.

Chinese scientists are installing a much advanced receiver system to the FAST system, the world's largest radio telescope, making it even more precise.

Neutron stars are some of the strangest things in the universe, but are they the source of the mysterious Fast Radio Bursts? Or is it aliens? Spoilers: probably not aliens.

The binary radio signal included information about DNA, the building blocks of life, and where we come from. It was constructed by Carl Sagan and Frank Drake, who had also created the Pioneer Plaque for the Pioneer 10 and 11 missions, and the Voyager golden record. Both of which were attempts to communicate with an alien species. The signal was sent to the star cluster M13, which is not expected to be a hotbed for life, but was the best option at the time that the telescope sent the signal. It would take 50,000 years for a species on M13 to reply to the message. For that reason it's really considered more of a message in a bottle. METI, or Messaging Extra Terrestrial Intelligence, is a movement that advocates sending messages out to potential aliens, but there are a lot of detractors who think that we may be opening ourselves up to danger from hostile civilizations.

Fast Radio Bursts are millisecond-duration pulses of unknown origin that were discovered by astronomers in 2007. A decade later, with only two dozen bursts known, Fast Radio Bursts remain enigmatic sources which parallel the early days of gamma-ray burst astronomy in the 1970s. Professor Lorimer tells the story of Fast Radio Bursts’ discovery, summarize what we know so far, describe the science opportunities these bursts present, and make predictions for what we will learn in the next decade.

SpaceTime 20180117 Series 21 Episode 04: *New clues about mysterious Fast Radio Bursts Astronomers have discovered new clues about mysterious cosmic blasts called Fast Radio Bursts – finding they originate from an environment bathed in extreme magnetic fields. While the new findings don’t shed any fresh light on what causes them – the research has provided some new insights to the deep space environment in which they occur. *Underground Martian water ice deposits exposed New images have revealed eight sites on Mars where thick subsurface deposits of water ice have been exposed on the cliff faces of eroding slopes. As well as holding clues about the red planet’s climate history – the findings also show how frozen water may be far more accessible for future missions to Mars than previously thought. *The universe has far more massive stars than expected Astronomers have discovered an excess of massive stars being formed in a giant stellar nursery in our neighbouring galaxy -- the Large Magellanic cloud. The findings are based on observations of 30 Doradus -- the Tarantula nebula –the biggest star-forming region in our part of the universe and host to some of the most massive stars ever found. *Tabby’s star just dusty New research has supported earlier studies indicating strange uneven and sporadic variations in the light coming from a distant star is most likely just dust. For the last few years astronomers and the general public have been captivated by the mysterious changes in brightness coming from the star now commonly referred to as Tabby’s Star. *The Science Report New figures confirm 2017 was Australia’s third hottest year on record. A new study warns ibuprofen pain killers can affect male fertility. The probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri has the potential to provide an effective treatment for colic.

It started in 2001, a brilliant burst of light breached the skies. The event had released as much power as 500 million suns. Just a few milliseconds later, the signal had vanished. Astronomers call these powerful flashes Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). Since 2001, about 30 have been identified. But, new estimates suggest one is happening almost every second. According to Dr. Avi Loeb, professor of science at Harvard University, "In the time it takes you to drink a cup of coffee, hundreds of FRBs may have gone off somewhere in the universe." The origins of FRBs continue to elude explanation. But there's one source unlike any other that may hold the key to solving the mystery. It's called FRB 121102. It's the only known FRB that repeats. Astronomers have observed over 150 flashes from FRB 121102. Its repeated signals suggest FRBs aren't from a single explosion. Rather, they could be from an unusual object called a magnetar. Magnetars are highly-dense stars with powerful magnetic fields. Whatever the reason, FRBs are proof there's still so much more to learn about our universe.

THE COSMOS — A group known as Messaging Extraterrestrial Intelligences, or METI, will in 2018 attempt to message alien life. According to CNET, most concur the message should consist of physics and math as these are forms of knowledge aliens likely hold in common with humanity. However, many scientists, including Stephen Hawking, worry that such a message could put Earth in danger. Previous attempts to communicate with alien civilizations have included sending out the formula for alcohol, and Craigslist advertisements, reported CNET. ----------------------------------------­--------------------- Go to https://www.patreon.com/tomonews and become a Patron now TomoNews is now on Patreon and we've got some cool perks for our hardcore fans.

In recent years, scientists have discovered fast radio bursts, energetic single pulses of radio emission arriving in random directions from unknown sources well beyond our galaxy, the Milky Way. The origin of these pulses is a major puzzle in high energy astrophysics. With its huge field of view and broad frequency coverage, the CHIME telescope is a nearly ideal instrument for finding and studying many of these bursts, enabling scientists to tackle one of the most mysterious new areas of astrophysics.

In this week’s question show, Fraser wonders if science is the best tool we’ve got, if communicating with aliens is a wise idea, and how he feels about people falling asleep to his videos.

BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA — Astronomers last month reported detections of radio bursts from a far away galaxy. Writing in the Astronomer's Telegram, scientists reported 15 fast radio bursts detected from a dwarf galaxy some 3 billion light years from our own. Scientists suggest the bursts may have come from a magnetar, which is a rotating neutron star with a strong magnetic field. Researchers also speculate that the bursts may originate from alien laser technology used to propel and power spacecraft, like wind powers sails on a ship, according to a University of California, Berkeley news release. That theory is similar to Breakthrough Starshot, an initiative aimed at propelling nanocraft to Proxima Centauri with Earth-based lasers. Whatever they came from, researchers say that those signals began travelling from their galaxy over 10 billion years ago, when ours wasn't even 2 billion years old. ----------------------------------------­--------------------- Go to https://www.patreon.com/tomonews and become a Patron now TomoNews is now on Patreon and we've got some cool perks for our hardcore fans.
