Scientists Say , Gravitational Wave Detection , May Help in Search for Alien Life.
'Futurism' reports that a team of scientists
have proposed using Earth-based observatories
to search for advanced civilizations by
looking for hypothetical warp drive activity.
According to 'Universe Today,' a team of researchers
argue that looking for specific types of gravitational
waves could indicate advanced forms of life
with powerful technological capabilities.
'Futurism' reports that gravitational waves
can be detected from huge distances,
even in the deepest reaches of the cosmos.

Gravitational waves send out massive
ripples in space and time, which have already
been detected by Earth-based observatories.
The team of researchers argue that warp drives, a hypothetical propulsion system that allows for speed of light travel, could create similar ripples.
Our study of warp drives
has paved the way for
gravitational wave detection, Gianni Martire, Coauthor and CEO
of Applied Physics, via 'Futurism'.
This new method is not limited to
the traditional range of electromagnetic
signals; thus we already have the ability
to probe all 10¹¹ stars in the Milky Way
for warp drives, and soon, the ability
to probe thousands of other galaxies, Gianni Martire, Coauthor and CEO
of Applied Physics, via 'Futurism'.
According to the team, Applied Physics has
teamed with Carnegie Mellon to create , "the first machine learning-based model that will
be sensitive enough to detect these warp drive
signals and distinguish them from background noise.".

The team still admits that human
technologies have some catching
up to do with hypothetical theories. .
Gravitational wave detection is still
in its infancy. Future experimental
improvements will open
the gates for new discoveries, Manfred Paulini, Professor of physics and associate dean at Carnegie Mellon University, via 'Futurism'
