7 hour radio scan by SETI on Interstellar object 3I/ATLAS reveals no technosignatures, reinforcing that 3I/ATLAS is a natural object

While no technosignatures were found, the study sets new constraints reinforcing that 3I/ATLAS is a natural object. The observations place upper limits on the power of any radio transmitter on or near 3I/ATLAS, ruling out signals stronger than about 10–110 watts, approximately the power of a household appliance, over the detected frequencies. "The results from 3I/ATLAS show how realistic it is to detect a signal with the technology we have today,” said Valeria Garcia Lopez, co-author. “That i...
