SEVENDIP stands for the "Search for Extraterrestrial Visible Emissions from Nearby Developed Intelligent Populations," an Optical SETI effort. SEVENDIP employs a 30-inch automated telescope located in Lafayette, California to scan the sky for potential signals from E.T. Since its inception in 1997, SEVENDIP has pioneered the use of optical technology to search for nanosecond time-scale pulses-pulses that could be generated by the powerful laser of a distant civilization.
