Scientists have been searching for signs of intelligent extraterrestrial life for decades, but so far they have not succeeded. The question of whether there is life beyond our planet has fascinated humanity for centuries. Since the 1960s, researchers have actively searched for signals from advanced civilizations as part of the “Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence” (SETI) project.
One of the earliest attempts to communicate with aliens was the Morse message transmitted in 1962. This message was sent to Venus and included symbols and codes meant to convey messages about peace and the origins of the signal. Spacecraft like Pioneer 10 and 11 also carried messages in visual form, such as golden discs with images and sounds representing life on Earth. These spacecraft ventured far beyond our solar system, with Pioneer 10 heading towards the star Aldebaran and Pioneer 11 towards the Aquila constellation.
In more recent years, messages like the Cosmic Call message have been sent towards specific star systems, using symbols representing fundamental aspects of human knowledge and culture. Despite these efforts, scientists continue to intrigue by exploring signs of advanced technology, such as superstructures or strange energy emissions that could provide evidence of intelligent extraterrestrial life. The quest to discover and connect with intelligent life beyond Earth remains a fascinating ongoing exploration of the universe.
