Scientists say gravitational wave detection may help in search for alien life

A team of scientists have proposed using Earth-based observatories to search for advanced civilizations by looking for hypothetical warp drive activity.

According to 'Universe Today,' the researchers argue that looking for specific types of gravitational waves could indicate advanced forms of life with powerful technological capabilities, and that the waves can be detected from huge distances, even in the deepest reaches of the cosmos.
