The Galileo Project: In Search for Technological Interstellar Objects – IEEE SSIT Chapter Meeting
February 23, 2022 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm
The search for extraterrestrial life is one of the most exciting frontiers in science. First tentative clues were identified close to Earth in the form of the unusual interstellar object ‘Oumuamua’ and Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP) in the Earth’s atmosphere. The recently announced “[Galileo Project](https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/galileo)” ushers the new frontier of “space archeology” in search of extraterrestrial technological relics. This lecture will feature content from the speaker’s books “[Extraterrestrial](https://www.hmhbooks.com/shop/books/Extraterrestrial/9780358274551)” and textbook “[Life in the Cosmos](https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674987579)”, both published in 2021, as well as material from his frequent [commentaries](https://lweb.cfa.harvard.edu/~loeb/Opinion.html).
