A Sign in Space - Simulating First Contact

What would happen if we received a message from an extraterrestrial civilization? Daniela de Paulis, Artist in Residence at the SETI Institute and the Green Bank Observatory (GBO), brought a team of international experts together, including SETI researchers, space scientists, and artists, to stage her latest project, A Sign in Space.

On May 24, 2023, the European Space Agency’s ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO), in orbit around Mars, will transmit an encoded message to Earth to simulate receiving a signal from extraterrestrial intelligence.

Please join us for a live stream hosted by the SETI Institute’s Dr. Franck Marchis and GBO’s Victoria Catlett as they receive the message and learn about the project from various artists and scientists involved.
