Microscopic bits of alien tech on the moon? As scientists searched for intelligent extraterrestrial life — i.e., aliens — they’ve focused on a short list of standard possibilities. In other words, ...

Researchers want to explore the idea that microscopic particles shed by alien civilizations have accumulated on the lunar surface, making it an archive of extraterrestrial technology. By Becky ...

Scientists are calling for a lunar quarantine facility where samples from Mars, the Moon, and beyond would be examined before being brought to Earth. They warn that even a tiny alien microorganism ...

Pulverised technology from collapsed alien civilisations may lie scattered across the solar system, including on the Moon, a new study suggests. The likelihood of advanced aliens living at the same ...

Researchers have argued that rather than peering at objects light-years away from Earth, signs of ancient extraterrestrial civilizations may be found at a place much closer to home—the Moon. The idea ...

The Moon has no oceans, weather or active plate tectonics to move things around. That means material arriving on its surface can remain there for millions or even billions of years. A new study ...

If ancient extraterrestrial explorers ever traipsed through Earth's cosmic neighborhood, it's possible they left behind some interstellar litter in their wake. Think of it like the loose hubcaps on ...
