Welcome! "Alien Life" tracks the latest discoveries and thoughts in the various elements of the famous Drake Equation. Here's today's news:
g Abodes - Geologists from the University of Leicester are among four scientists - including a Nobel prize-winner - who suggest that Earth has entered a new age of geological time. See article.
g Life - How do species modify their phenotypes in ways that permit them to succeed in their environment? See article. Note: This article is from 2009.
g Intelligence - Early human ancestors and chimpanzee ancestors may have mated and produced offspring, according to a new DNA study. See article. Note: This article is from 2006.
g Message - SETI experiments generally look for what are politely termed "narrow-band signals." In other words, the receivers at the back ends of our radio telescopes search wide swaths of the spectrum looking for a signal that's at one spot on the dial — a signal that's very constrained in frequency. By putting all the transmitted power into this small bandwidth, the aliens can ensure that their signal will stand out. See article. Note: This article is from 2008.
g Cosmicus - The Large Hadron Collider in Geneva succeeded early Tuesday in colliding subatomic particles at three times the highest energy levels previously recorded. See article.
g Learning - Are you a future SETI scientist? See article. Note: This article is from Feb. 2001.
g Aftermath - Scientists are studying the best ways to compose messages meant for alien eyes in case we ever do get the chance to communicate with extraterrestrials. See article.
