Possibilities for stationing a large microwave antenna in geosynchronous orbit, or at L4 or L5, are discussed in terms of project CETI. An antenna with a surface area in the range of 1.5 x 10 to the 9th cm, and a transmitting power in the 20 GW range is envisioned. The antenna would derive its energy from a satellite solar power station. Goals of the project include: easy detection from possible receivers, maximum transmitting distance for given average power, high signal-to-noise ratio, ability to send some information, and a signal distinguishable from natural signals.
