New Method for Detecting Extraterrestrial Intelligence via Spatial Distribution Patterns (heise.de)

• Transition away from searching for localized signals
• Statistical analysis of celestial spatial distributions
• Focus on indicators of large-scale civilizational expansion

"Researchers have proposed an innovative method for identifying extraterrestrial intelligence, shifting focus from individual bio- or technosignatures to the analysis of large-scale spatial distribution patterns of exoplanetary systems. This approach seeks to identify anomalies in galactic structure that could indicate deliberate colonization or systemic, large-scale engineering projects across star clusters."
