Vast ocean under Pluto's surface raises fresh hopes of extraterrestrials, study suggests
A vast ocean buried below Pluto's surface has raised fresh hopes of extraterrestrial activity, a study has suggested.
Analysis of images from NASA's New Horizons mission shows that Pluto was hot when it first formed, rather than a celestial snowball as previously thought.
The ocean is thought to have existed for around four and a half billion years - older even than the seas on Earth.
Planetary scientist Carver Bierson said: "Even in this cold environment so far from the sun, all these worlds might have formed fast and hot - with liquid oceans.
There may be 36 other intelligent civilizations in the galaxy, but odds of communicating with
A study by researchers from the University of Nottingham in England suggests that there could be about 36 other intelligent civilizations spread throughout the Milky Way galaxy, but there are two big obstacles that are likely to prevent any communication with them: distance and time.
It is beginning to look like most stars have at least one planet going around them, and with up to 400 billion stars in the Milky Way, that could mean on the order of a trillion planets in our galaxy alone. And there are hundreds of billions of other galaxies spread across the universe.
NASA To Fund Search For Signs Of Alien Civilizations. 'Now We Know Where To Look' Say Scientists
Could astronomers find technosignatures around distant exoplanets? Astrophysicists are seeking the ... [+] physical and chemical signatures that would indicate advanced technology.
"Technosignatures relate to signatures of advanced alien technologies similar to, or perhaps more sophisticated than, what we possess," said Avi Loeb, Frank B. Baird Jr. Professor of Science at Harvard. "Such signatures might include industrial pollution of atmospheres, city lights, photovoltaic cells (solar panels), megastructures, or swarms of satellites."

The search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) has been pursued as a serious scientific program, though at times sporadically, for sixty years. In the last five years, Listen has massively increased the scope of radio (as well as optical) searches, and has developed technology, deployed at giant radio telescopes on three continents, that enables coverage of an unprecedented range of frequencies at high resolution.
German-Russian telescope eROSITA captures our stunning universe in x-ray vision- Technology News,
A German-Russian space telescope has now captured a view of the sky in X-rays. The image records some breathtaking events in heaven.
According to a report in CBS News , the image was captured using the eROSITA X-ray telescope, mounted on the space observatory Spektr-RG.
The report mentions a team of researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Germany saying that the resulting image shows never before seen view of the sky through X-ray vision.
'I feel like an alien!
"I didn't vote for this government. This government was the choice of other people. And the problem I had was that I got the news from England and the news from Germany. If aliens looked at us both from the outside, they would think we came from two different planets.
"From a personal point of view, I don't understand why we started wearing face masks in closed areas on June 15 when five or six weeks ago all the other countries were doing it.
"You can argue about whether it makes sense to wear them, but all countries who started wearing face masks earlier have smaller casualty numbers than here in England. That's the truth.

A telescope called the 'eROSITA X-ray' has completed its first full sweep of the sky, over the course of 182 days.

The map of the hot, energetic universe has more than one million objects. The first complete image is around four times deeper than the previous all-sky survey 30 years ago, according to the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics in Germany.
The telescope was launched on July 13, 2019 on-board the SRG spacecraft, and completed its first survey on June 11, 2020. It's in continuous scanning mode.
