An intelligent life form can create radios, lasers, spaceships, and even Dyson spheres. In this case, these civilisations can sow with their technologies not only their own planet, but also neighbouring ones, and even entire star systems.<\/p>\n<p>Technology may even outlive the civilisation that created it by continuing to send technosignatures across outer space. The authors of the study cite as an example our civilisation, that has scattered its own technologies throughout the solar system and even beyond and, notably, our space technologies could already be detected by aliens.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, they can continue sending technosignatures after our civilisation dies, according to SETI Institute astronomer Jill Tarter. \u201cThe Lageos satellites will probably continue to orbit the Earth long after the planet becomes uninhabitable,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/sierra-leone\">Sierra-Leone<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Sierra-Leone.
