The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) is a scientific research area focused on detecting signs of intelligent life beyond Earth. SETI researchers use various methods such as radio telescopes to listen for signals from other civilizations that may be transmitting messages across the cosmos. The ultimate goal of SETI is to answer the age-old question of whether or not we are alone in the universe. This field of research has garnered widespread interest and support from both scientists and the general public.
