What Does OSETI Stand For?

OSETI stands for Optical SETI

OSETI, or Optical Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, is a scientific initiative focused on the detection of extraterrestrial civilizations through the observation of light signals. This approach utilizes advanced optical telescopes and equipment to scan for deliberate laser transmissions or other forms of electromagnetic radiation that may indicate the presence of intelligent life beyond Earth. OSETI complements traditional radio-based SETI efforts, expanding the search for signals across the electromagnetic spectrum.
