An Encounter with Extraterrestrial Intelligence.

open access: yesBiological Sciences in Space, 2003
It is much easier to find extraterrestrial intelligence than to detect simple organisms living on other planets. However, it is hard to communicate with such intelligence without the mutual understanding of inter-stellar communication protocol. The radio SETI (The Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence) was initiated with the pioneering work of F ...

Galactic Punctuated Equilibrium: How to Undermine Carter's Anthropic Argument in Astrobiology

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate a new strategy which can defeat the (in)famous Carter's "anthropic" argument against extraterrestrial life and intelligence. In contrast to those already considered by Wilson, Livio, and others, the present approach is based on relaxing ...
