The Search for Extra-Terrestrial Intelligence, SETI, relies on looking for signals from distant alien worlds where even very powerful signals can weaken to near nothing. We'll explore today how we, or extraterrestrials, might get around this problem, be it by immense star-powered transmitters or by using laser communication beams.

If the Universe is inhabited by older alien civilizations, those who have ventured out to the stars and colonized galaxies, we would expect to see a footprint of extraterrestrial activity. Could the many stars whose brightness has dimmed be indicative of Dyson Spheres or other Megastructures? Could the Cosmic Voids vastly bigger than any galaxy be the work of even greater and older starfaring species?
