"Chang'E-4 (CE4), the first mission to soft-land on the lunar farside, provides a unique opportunity for astronomical observations from an environment shielded from terrestrial radio interference, and thus serves as pathfinder for #LunarFarside radio search for extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI) studies. We present a search for periodic technosignatures using low-frequency radio observations from the CE-4 mission, the first radio #SETI study based on data from on the observation in lunar farside": #Moon ...
