Gabriela Radulescu is a Guggenheim Postdoctoral Fellow (2024-2025) at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. Gabriela holds a PhD in the history of science from the Technical University of Berlin. Her dissertation “A History of Communication with Extraterrestrial Intelligence (CETI): Astronautics and Radio Astronomy Across the Iron Curtain (1956-1976)” is a radical historiographical intervention on the subject, showing how Metalaw was the first real CETI and how relations in astronautics between East and West were at the core of radio astronomy's CETI. As an anthropologist, Gabriela worked previously on seemingly terrestrial matters.
