A new laser telescope array is hunting for signs of extraterrestrial intelligences, Toyota's spending the next ten years building a Moon rover and this past June got more than a little toasty.
Breakthrough searches for signs of alien life in ultra-fast light pulses
Yuri Milner's Breakthrough Listen project has teamed with the researchers at VERITAS Very Energetic Radiation Imaging Telescope Array System in hopes of finding signs of intelligent life, and then communicating with it, via high tech Morse code. Specifically, the VERITAS's 4-telescope array will beam nanosecond long bursts of laser energy into the cosmos, hopefully attracting the attention of a benevolent alien species.
Toyota will spend 10 years perfecting its astronaut moon rover
There's water in them thar Moon hills, JAXA is sure of it.
