A telescope designed to search for laser signals from alien intelligences is to start scanning the skies next year. The 1.8-metre (6 ft) Optical SETI (Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) Telescope is currently being built in Harvard.
For more than 40 years, scientists have looked for radio signals from aliens on the understanding that radio waves provide the most energy-efficient way to send a signal across interstellar distances. But despite using the world's largest radio telescopes with highly sensitive detectors, no sign of a signal has been found in space as yet.
Several years ago some astronomers said it was hardly surprising that no radio signal had been
detected yet. They maintained that researchers might be looking for the wrong kind of message. It was assumed that a technologically advanced race might be more likely to communicate using pulsed laser beams rather than radio. The new approach was hoped to be more fruitful.
Searching for laser pulse signals was first suggested by the Nobel
prize winning scientist Charles
Townes in 1961 and was, according to
its supporters, met with 'more
interest than enthusiasm'. It was
thought that a high-powered laser
coupled with a large telescope could
send a signal across many light
years of space. Scientists believed
that an alien laser beam would be
pulsed to encode a signal.
During the pulse, lasting perhaps
less than a millionth of a second, the
laser light could be much brighter
than the light from the star in the
system from which the signal is being
sent. The new SETI Telescope will look for these brief pulses of laser light, scanning the entire northern sky once every 200 clear nights. It will have a special camera fitted with an array of 1,024 ultra-fast detectors that can spot flashes as short as a billionth of a second.
According to the researchers, using only the Earth 2001 technology we can now generate a beamed laser pulse that appears 5,000 times brighter than our Sun, as seen by a distant civilization. In other words, interstellar laser communication is altogether practicable with the new Optical SETI Telescope searching the sky for such signs of intelligent life elsewhere in the galaxy.
