Signal coverage approach to the detection probability of hypothetical extraterrestrial emitters in the Milky Way

Claudio Grimaldi

The lack of evidence for the existence of extraterrestrial life, even the simplest forms of animal life, makes it is difficult to decide whether the search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) is more a high-risk, high-payoff endeavor than a futile att ...
