The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence ([[SETI]]) is a program to scan the sky in radio bands likely to be used by other civilizations. Thousands of candidate nearby stars have been examined, but no signal has been found. In 1967 there was some excitement when a regular series of radio pulses were picked up, but this was determined to have natural causes and was the first detected [[pulsar]]. | The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence ([[SETI]]) is a program to scan the sky in radio bands likely to be used by other civilizations.
