Stellar plasma can smear alien radio signals before they escape their star system, making them harder for astronomers to detect.

For four decades, many SETI experiments have focused on finding sharp spikes in frequency but the new study says signals may not stay narrow as they travel away from their home system.

The researchers who scan the skies for radio signals from extraterrestrials are now rethinking their approach.
