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 10ยนยน 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'
