THE FACTS. “However, this is not the case. Despite the passage of nearly 60 years since the first radio SETI searches, very little actual searching has been done, compared to the amount needed to rule out the presence of a even a large number of "loud" beacons.” https://lnkd.in/dKzsrBv View in LinkedIn

EPITAPH ON A TYRANT" "(W. H. Auden - 1907-1973)" "" "“Perfection, of a kind, was what he was after," "And the poetry he invented was easy to understand;" "He knew human folly like the back of his hand," "And was greatly interested in armies and fleets;" "When he laughed, respectable senators burst with laughter," "And when he cried the little children died in the streets.” https://lnkd.in/dntzTtr View in LinkedIn

ASSUMED THOROUGHNESS. “The term "silence" in the these expressions is sometimes interpreted to mean that we have established that there are no obvious radio or other communicative signals to be found in space—i.e., that we have conducted a thorough search for signals, and concluded that there are very few or none of them.” https://lnkd.in/dKzsrBv View in LinkedIn

THE DETRACTORS. “Other variants on "Fact A" are the "Great Silence" of Brin (1983) and the "Eerie Silence" of Davies (2011), both of which refer to the more general fact that we have not yet found any evidence of extraterrestrial intelligent life in the universe.” https://lnkd.in/dKzsrBv View in LinkedIn

MAGNIFICENT SCALE. “As these wave modes are key elements for both acceleration and loss of the relativistic electrons, the plasmasphere and its dynamics driven by the large-scale convection electric field play a key role in the relativistic electron problem. Substorms are associated with inductive, localized electric fields, and are effective in transporting both electrons and ions to the inner magnetosphere.” https://link.springer.com/article/10.12942/lrsp-2007-1 View in LinkedIn

THE PLASMAPAUSE. “Changes in the large-scale convection electric field change the plasmaspheric configuration thus changing the locations where the plasmaspheric hiss (in the nightside, inside the plasmapause), EMIC waves (in the dusk sector, inside the plasmapause), and whistler mode chorus waves (in the morning sector, outside the plasmapause) occur.” https://link.springer.com/article/10.12942/lrsp-2007-1 View in LinkedIn
