He is the head of the <a href="https://projects.iq.harvard.edu/galileo/home" target="_blank">Galileo Project</a>, which aims to establish a network of sophisticated telescopes which will scan the skies for extraterrestrial objects.The privately funded project, which involves more than 100 scientists, is building its first telescope system on the roof of the Harvard college observatory, and it will begin operating this summer. Loeb plans to make the projects’ findings publicly available.The telescope will use infra-red cameras to take 24/7 video of the sky, and is equipped with a radio sensor, an audio sensor and a magnetometer to detect non-visual objects. A computer will use artificial intelligence to analyze the data, ignoring objects like birds, drones, planes, and meteors, and paying extra attention to any objects “that are not human-made”, Loeb said.This is my favourite part </blockquote>
