Technosignature Research Portal

Here we extrapolate the idea of launching SpaceX's Starlink satellites and study the possibility of building planetary megastructures (either designed as solid objects or as a web of satellites) by Type-I civilizations and the consequent detection of their techno-signatures. We have shown that the instruments of The Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) can potentially observe emission pattern of the huge constructions. Efficiency of the spectral variability method has been emphasized and the role of the FAST telescope was discussed.
