Alien messages: What if we have been 'tuning in' to the wrong station?

The article explores the possibility that humanity has been searching for extraterrestrial signals using the wrong part of the radio spectrum. It suggests that our assumption that aliens would use radio waves like humans might be incorrect, and that advanced civilizations could communicate through entirely different technologies. The piece raises questions about whether we have overlooked potential signals by not exploring other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum. It references scientific fields such as astronomy, astrobiology, and the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

There is no overt political framing, and the tone is in
