“…The SETI capabilities of extant instrumentation were also discussed. Panov et al (2021) described the TAIGA-HiSCORE Cherenkov array's search for nanosecond optical transients, including its application to SETI with a very wide-field of view optimal for detecting very rare events. Osmanov (2021a) concluded that Galactic and extragalactic self-replicating von-Neuman probes might be detectable with FAST.…”

In this second installment of SETI in 20xx, we very briefly and subjectively review developments in SETI in 2021. Our primary focus is 93 papers and books published or made public in 2021, which we sort into six broad categories: results from actual searches, new search methods and instrumentation, target and frequency selection, the development of technosignatures, theory of ETIs, and social aspects of SETI.

“…The stations of the TAIGA-HiSCORE installation are adapted for detecting optical pulses of Cherenkov light with a duration from units of ns to several tens of ns. It was shown [41] that the events of remote point optical transients of any nature can be distinguished from the events of the EAS (gamma quanta or cosmic rays) by the structure of the events of the HiSCORE installation: the events of the EAS have the form of a compact set of installation stations, but the events of remote point sources illuminate the entire installation uniformly. Due to this, it is possible to organize event filtering in the HiSCORE data stream to search for possible events of remote optical transients of astrophysical origin.…”

The physical motivations, present status, main results in study of cosmic rays and in the field of gamma-ray astronomy as well future plans of the TAIGA-1 (Tunka Advanced Instrument for cosmic ray physics and Gamma Astronomy) project are presented. The TAIGA observatory addresses ground-based gamma-ray astronomy and astroparticle physics at energies from a few TeV to several PeV, as well as cosmic ray physics from 100 TeV to several EeV. The pilot TAIGA-1 complex is located in the Tunka valley, ~50 km west from the southern tip of the lake Baikal.
