Description
Project Breakthrough Listen
Breakthrough Listen is a project to search for intelligent extraterrestrial communications in the Universe. With $100 million in funding and thousands of hours of dedicated telescope time on state-of-the-art facilities, it is the most comprehensive search for alien communications to date. The project began in January 2016, and is expected to continue for 10 years. It is a component of Yuri Milner's Breakthrough Initiatives program. The science program for Breakthrough Listen is based at Berkeley SETI Research Center, located in the Astronomy Department at the University of California, Berkeley.
The project uses radio wave observations from the Green Bank Observatory and the Parkes Observatory, and visible light observations from the Automated Planet Finder. Targets for the project include one million nearby stars and the centers of 100 galaxies. All data generated from the project are available to the public, and SETI@Home is used for some of the data analysis. The first results were published in April 2017, with further updates expected every 6 months.

Breakthrough Listen est un projet de recherche de communications extraterrestres intelligentes dans l'Univers. Avec un financement de 100 millions de dollars et des milliers d'heures de temps consacré au télescope sur des installations de pointe, il s'agit de la recherche la plus complète de communications extraterrestres à ce jour. Le projet a débuté en janvier 2016 et devrait se poursuivre pendant 10 ans. C'est une composante du programme Breakthrough Initiatives de Yuri Milner. Le programme scientifique de Breakthrough Listen est basé au Berkeley SETI Research Center, situé dans le département d'astronomie de l'Université de Californie à Berkeley.
Le projet utilise des observations d'ondes radio de l'observatoire de Green Bank et de l'observatoire de Parkes, et des observations de lumière visible de l'Automated Planet Finder. Les cibles du projet comprennent un million d'étoiles proches et les centres de 100 galaxies. Toutes les données générées par le projet sont accessibles au public et SETI @ Home est utilisé pour une partie de l'analyse des données. Les premiers résultats ont été publiés en avril 2017, avec d'autres mises à jour attendues tous les 6 mois.

They have found us before we found them ... nice work
C'est passionnant
Belle atmosphère sur ce render. Merci pour les explications, c'est très sympa
Great image & info.
Fantastic image and info,excellent work!!!!!!!!!!!!
Très belle image avec une superbe atmosphère nocturne, les infos sont super intéressantes c’est en effet passionnant.... excellente réalisation !!
Good idea, nicely done. I did number crunching for SETI a while ago and burned 2 power supplies.
Fascinante image ! Et merci pour les infos.....
Great image & informative descriptive! Many fine praises from me!
Is there anybody out there talking in a form of communication we can interpret as intelligent communication? Hmmmm a most interesting question. ...and while the search goes on, we haven't a clue (that we are willing to talk about) with regard to everyday 'UAP' incidents happening here on earth. After 50 years of gaslighting us about sightings be 1) Swamp Gas 2) The Planet Venus 3) Flares being dropped, etc we have evolved to an official position of 'we dunno'.
Hopefully they will find signs of intelligent life out there somewhere... There sure isn't much of it on this planet lately...
