The true story of how humans are searching for intelligent alien life
Real scientists are searching for alien life. Don’t let the kooks distract you.


Let’s get something straight: Congressional hearings are not the way we are going to discover the existence of intelligent alien life. They are a distraction from the bona fide alien-hunting work — the sort that doesn’t involve grandstanding individuals and showy stunts, but scientists searching a sea of stars for the sounds or sights of extraterrestrial intelligence.


A nice summary of SETI research including the current state of it and upcoming projects. UCB's Andrew Siemion has three quotes and a mention.
