July 2024 brought a heat wave to Arizona as well as an unprecedented software outage across the nation. But for Richard Factor, it also brought excitement and the glimmer of hope that accompanies the forefront of science. Factor, a Grammy winner and ham radio expert, was offering his rooftop as the location for the next LaserSETI observatory.

July marked a significant milestone in optical SETI research, as the SETI Institute team installed two new LaserSETI stations Sedona, AZ. This installation brings the number of active LaserSETI observatories to three, enhancing our ability to scan the entire sky and monitor for extrasolar laser pulses continuously. LaserSETI stations need to be strategically placed around the globe to achieve this goal.
