North-western WA to help in alien search
Monday 28 June, 1999 (4:36pm WST)

**

The north-west of Western Australia will soon play a vital role
in the search for extraterrestrial life.

The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Research Institute
will develop the historic OTC satellite dish site at Carnarvon,
as well as a site at Derby.

The institute will add two new radio telescopes to its network
of 80, searching space for signals around the world.

The institute's director, Noel Wellstead, says the telescopes
will be used to search for radio, as well as visual signals.

"We're also looking in the optical spectrum, looking for signs
of advanced communications networks that may in fact use laser
beams to channel the information, much like we do here with
fibre optic cables, and we're looking for those types of
emissions from within the nearby regions of our own solar
system," he said.
