As testing of the first SKA-Low telescope stations continues, our scientists have used a single station of 256 antennas to detect two known pulsars! The one in this video rotates every 0.4 seconds. 💫 Learn why pulsars are a key #SKAscience interest: loom.ly/5GcFxmo

Happy holidays from the Breakthrough Listen and The SETI Institute Allen Telescope Array teams!

REMINDER: Applications for this #postdocposition are due tomorrow!

“When I look at a starry sky, I tend to wonder. I watch the stars flicker and imagine what life would be like around them, likely they are something unimaginably different from what we know, but perhaps there are places that resemble our own world.” 🌎 🛰️ Meet Brian Rogers, a

Earth Detecting Earth: How Far Away Can We Detect Earth's Technosignatures? x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

More astronomical discoveries from Breakthrough #Listen and its collaborators at NRF/SARAO and Rhodes University. Hardware the team built for MeerKAT has identified new transients in its data archive – a stellar radio flare and millisecond pulsars, including exotic “spider” MSPs.

Excited to announce my forthcoming book Reinventing SETI (@oxunipress, Aug 2025), where I challenge outdated paradigms in the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. Stay tuned! #SETI #Astronomy #NewBook
