Unless our antennae were located at the poles ...

True, but utterly irrelevant to the issue under discussion. Reminds me of a well-known creo's style. You're going over to the dark side.

SLIMES!

This obviously proves that you cannot rebut my "polar antennae theory"! Your SLIMES reveal the emptiness of your intellecual position!

Most people assume that aliens from a different planet would be very eager to communicate with us once they realized we existed. However, the sad reality is that we are likely to appear as hopelessly prehistoric from their point of reference.

We also assume that a spacefaring civilization would have the same interests we do- that is, another species might have no interest at all in meeting another sentient race.

I dont' recall much about

ET to ET communications in the radio spectrum.

IF my memory serves me right, their communications are thought or known to occur on some other sort of 'sub-space' level of reality or dimension.

But, contradictorily,

I also have a faint memory of there having been some brief and very rare communications caught between ET's but I don't know of what sort, how or when they were caught.

Most of it seems to be outside our experience, if not outside our science.

Am reading a long document on scalar waves now. I suppose it could be some means along those lines.

I've long wondered if it were possible for atoms to carry data and communicate it atom to atom whether by spin or orbit or some combination sorts of things.

I've just toyed with the mechanics of God being in touch with every atom of His creation. Perhaps the scalar phenomenon which asserts that the spaces between the subatomic particles of atomic structures--the spaces that most things are mostly made of--or everything is mostly made of--that those spaces are filled with energy which has some profound relationships to time and other dimensions . . . anyway--gets complicated and beyond my training but is fascinating.

Perhaps communications ET to ET are truly EXTRADIMENSIONAL.

About the limits of my faint memories on such things.

THANKS FOR THE PING.
