    Open Access•Gabriela Rădulescu•ARTICLE•Histories•2026

    This paper addresses the knowledge gap on the beginning of the history of contact with extraterrestrial intelligent beings in international astronautics. In the mid-1950s, the world’s space law practitioner, Andrew G. Haley, proposed the concept of Metalaw, the law governing interactions between all beings in the Universe, as he represented the American Rocket Society in the International Astronautical Congress, the single largest gathering of sp…

  • Soviet Interstellar Communications in the Early 1960s

    Gabriela Rădulescu•ARTICLE•Journal of Astronomical History…•2025

    This paper focuses on the idea of interstellar communications in the Soviet Union during the early 1960s. More precisely, it analyzes how this concept endorsed a particular viewpoint of humans communicating with other possibly existing beings in the Universe. First, I present the 1959 Nature paper ‘Searching for Interstellar Communications’ by Giuseppe Cocconi and Philip Morrison that legitimized interstellar communications within astronomy. I th…

  • From distance(s) to civilization(s)

    Open Access•Gabriela Rădulescu•ARTICLE•Social Studies of Science•2025•References: 3

    This article draws on post-positivist conceptualizations of distance in human geography to look at how Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory (BAO) astronomers identified with an ancient scientific-cultural legacy and how a corresponding imaginary bonded this legacy, BAO, and extraterrestrial intelligence. As part of the growing prospect of reaching out to other civilizations through radio waves in the 1960s, radio astronomers from Russian research i…
