The common understanding of a distant intelligent species often involves interstellar spacecraft and communications, but the new SETI study concentrates on energy use as a signifier of civilization.
Intergalactic signals that might be detectable to us on Earth are ones created by energy-consuming technology, but until now, searching for these patterns hasn’t been the norm.
The first extragalactic low-frequency signature search was conducted using equipment designed to detect what researchers refer to as technosignatures, or patterns caused by a large-scale civilization using energy and technology.
