Getting Ready for the SKA SETI

Part of the Springer Proceedings in Physics book series (SPPHY,volume 260)

Abstract

The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) in the next future will be able to reach the proper sensitivity to make it possible the interception of potential alien transmission at distance that is now certainly proved to host a big amount of exo-planetary systems; some of them are potentially able to host intelligent life. With applying Commensal Observation strategies and Cognitive and AI Computing, SKA, with the two stages of construction SKA1 and SKA2, could be considered a very good instrumentation to carry out the most important discovery of mankind.
