High Resolution Microwave Survey
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The High Resolution Microwave Survey was a decade long NASA project to scan ten million frequencies using radio telescopes. The objective was to find transmissions from alien intelligences. SETI researcher Jill Tarter worked on this project in 1992 and 1993.
Within one year first-term Nevada Senator Richard Bryan succeeded in shutting down the project.
The primary point of observation for the project was the Arecibo Ionaspheric Observatory in Puerto Rico.
