John Gertz: Reinventing Seti, Gebunden

Klappentext

Reinventing SETIclears out the cobwebs of outdated or wrongheaded SETI paradigms such as Fermi's Paradox, the Drake Equation, and METI (i. e., proactively sending signals from Earth to putative aliens). It argues that scientists should approach the pursuit of extraterrestrials (ETs) in a more effective manner. Author John Gertz states that ETs, as biological lifeforms themselves, cannot accomplish interstellar travel, but have instead placed robotic probes throughout the universe, perhaps even in our own Solar System. Humorous and deeply informative, this book takes the reader through the universe, conventional SETI methods, and ideas on future ET exploration.
