Solar system exploration provides numerous possibilities for advancing technosignature science. The search for life in the solar system includes missions designed to search for evi…
Millisecond Pulsars as Standards: Timing, positioning and communication
Clement Vidal
Millisecond pulsars (MSPs) have a great potential to set standards in timekeeping, positioning and metadata communication.
Pulsar Positioning System: A quest for evidence of extraterrestrial engineering
Clement Vidal
Pulsars have at least two impressive applications. First, they can be used as highly accurate clocks, comparable in stability to atomic clocks; secondly, a small subset of pulsars,…
Organized Complexity: is Big History a Big Computation?
Jean-Paul Delahaye, Clement Vidal
The concept of "logical depth" introduced by Charles H. Bennett (1988) seems to capture, at least partially, the notion of organized complexity, so central in big history. More pre…
The Beginning and the End: The Meaning of Life in a Cosmological Perspective
Clement Vidal
Where does it all come from? Where are we going? Are we alone in the universe? What is good and what is evil? The scientific narrative of cosmic evolution demands that we tackle su…
Artificial Cosmogenesis: A New Kind of Cosmology
Clement Vidal
This paper introduces foundations for a new kind of cosmology. We advocate that computer simulations are needed to address two key cosmological issues. First, the robustness of the…
