论文摘要
Astro2020报告概述了许多可能会大大提高技术签名科学的建议。技术签名是指任何可观察到的外星技术的表现，而对技术签名的搜索是天文学搜索生物签名的连续性的一部分。在Astro2020报告中，搜索技术签名与“上下文中的世界和太阳”主题和“可居住世界的途径”计划直接相关。技术签名的相关性在“针对系外行星，天体生物学和太阳系的E1报告”中明确提及，该报告指出，“生命对行星的大气，表面行为和时间行为的影响可能会表现为潜在可检测到的潜在的生物签名和技术，并且可以表现为潜在的生物签名，并具有分析性的技术，并且可以表现出技术的作用。减轻误报。可以强调技术签名与这个高级主题和程序的联系，因为该报告清楚地表明，目的是解决“我们一个人吗？”的问题。该问题也在探索科学2020-2024计划中提出，作为NASA任务的驱动力。 这份白皮书总结了Astro2020报告的建议中的潜在技术签名机会，如果资助机构实施了这些机会。 The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the relevance of technosignature science to a wide range of missions and urge the scientific community to include the search for technosignatures as part of the stated science justifications for the large and medium programs that include the Infrared/Optical/Ultraviolet space telescope, Extremely Large Telescopes, probe-class far-infrared and X-ray missions, and various facilities in radio astronomy.
The Astro2020 report outlines numerous recommendations that could significantly advance technosignature science. Technosignatures refer to any observable manifestations of extraterrestrial technology, and the search for technosignatures is part of the continuum of the astrobiological search for biosignatures. The search for technosignatures is directly relevant to the "World and Suns in Context" theme and "Pathways to Habitable Worlds" program in the Astro2020 report. The relevance of technosignatures was explicitly mentioned in "E1 Report of the Panel on Exoplanets, Astrobiology, and the Solar System," which stated that "life's global impacts on a planet's atmosphere, surface, and temporal behavior may therefore manifest as potentially detectable exoplanet biosignatures, or technosignatures" and that potential technosignatures, much like biosignatures, must be carefully analyzed to mitigate false positives. The connection of technosignatures to this high-level theme and program can be emphasized, as the report makes clear the purpose is to address the question "Are we alone?" This question is also presented in the Explore Science 2020-2024 plan as a driver of NASA's mission. This white paper summarizes the potential technosignature opportunities within the recommendations of the Astro2020 report, should they be implemented by funding agencies. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the relevance of technosignature science to a wide range of missions and urge the scientific community to include the search for technosignatures as part of the stated science justifications for the large and medium programs that include the Infrared/Optical/Ultraviolet space telescope, Extremely Large Telescopes, probe-class far-infrared and X-ray missions, and various facilities in radio astronomy.
