There are international conventions and agreements which forbid sending messages to outer space. Should them {HUb'$} be allowed to go on? Is it dangerous? Should governments worry about? To forbid the initiative is to hinder free speech? My opinion: I wish them luck. What do you think? of Cour$e cureent Go_Mints should oppose THEM THEN self preSERVations and besides sometime I spin electrons faster than light speed |

Whilst we have been sending Benny Hill and frends into space for years (so to speak), the broadcssts were never targeted in a direction believed to be occupied by alien beings.
Should we receive transmissions from ET I would consider it very important not to reply untill at the very least we have made an effort to decode the received message. Phobos |

1. As near to the Speed of Light (299,792.458 km/s) as the Interstellar Medium, will Allow.
2. Epsilon Eridani, which is 9,930,000,000,000,000 (9.93E+15) kilometres, away. 3. 10.5 Years, Great, now they're Starting to Watch Seinfeld, "Jerry, Hello!" _________________ If you Ignore YOUR Rights, they Will go away. <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: ZaphodBeeblebrox on 2002-06-14 00:31 ]</font> |

2. Unknown, but if planetary systems are as prolific the evidence is showing then it's quite likely that there are many worlds within the 60 or so light years that our earliest TV signals have travelled so far. 3. Well, I Love Lucy aired in the mid to late 50's so the signals would be 50 or so light years distant. Again, probably more than enough distance to have travelled to several planetary systems by now. I think it's kind of cool to imagine a SETI at Home-like project picking us up on another world.

Yes, because that was, as quite Clearly Stated in the Book, as well as The Movie, The First Signal, that We Sent, that was of Sufficient Power, to be Noticed, Above the Interstellar Background. No, because we couldn't, at least at the Current Time, Perform a Similar Feat; in fact, a Modern Civilization, could be Orbiting One of the Stars of Alpha Cent, (Rigil Kent) Right Now, and we couldn't know about them, Unless, of course, They Wanted us To! _________________ If you Ignore YOUR Rights, they Will go away. <font size=-1>[ This Message was edited by: ZaphodBeeblebrox on 2002-06-14 01:02 ]</font> |

They're not going to contact us. They think our science fiction movies are newscasts and they're afraid of our advanced weaponry.
