Collectivists never give up, do they?
How else will the rapture be (falsely) explained?
Just send Jo Jo’s French, Lesbian Cabbage Patch Kid over to hook up with them. She’s an expert on American lesbianism and more than likely knows all the “pronouns” they’re going to have to learn to communicate with us.
At least the U.S. taxpayers will not be shelling out for this total boondoggle.
And will the Scottish scientists be develop the protocol to answer the aliens in a Scottish accent?!?
I can seen editorial cartoonists, not to mention Babylon Bee, having a lot of fun with this announcement.
Just remember: “Klaatu! Barada nikto!”
Gee, I wonder who is paying for that and how much $$$ involved?
Remembering “Close Encounters of the Third Kind”, I hope the experts make some room for the earthlings who are invited to the first meeting to get there and be part of the discussion. Just in case.
We already have Elvis as an ambassador.
They should include his input in any protocols.
Another boondoggle to fleece taxpayers and line pockets. I strongly suspect they have been here and likely have made contact years ago. They likely view us as an under-developed planet worthy of observation to keep us quarantined from higher developed planets.
Nothing like seeking communication with evil spirits.
Amazing, the ways we find to waste money....
I remember the protocol that poor religious guy used in the 1950s - 60s movie The War of the Worlds. In retrospect, he should have just left a greeting card.

Scientists are working
If extraterrestrial life sent us a message tomorrow, how would humanity respond?
—
This assumes that aliens will be friendly do-gooders, your next door neighbors, and best friends.
What if they are not? What if they see us as competition for resources?
What if their message is sent from light years distant, in the form of a naked singularity traveling a 90% light speed and aimed at the sun?
Our message back in the form of a strongly worded letter? A diplomatic plea? Or just bend over and KYA good bye?
First thing, you get them to sign a Democrat voter registration form.
When? They are ALREADY here! Hillary, Bill....NANCY! Schumer and all the rest of the Democrat principals.
My protocol will be to scream like a girl and run away.
Scientists are working on an official 'alien contact protocol' for when ET phones Earth
If extraterrestrial life sent us a message tomorrow, how would humanity respond? According to researchers, we don't know yet and that's a problem.
That's why, for the first time in 35 years, a team of policy experts and scientists have united to establish a set of alien-contact protocols for the entire world to follow in the event of a sudden encounter with E.T.
Interesting timing. The article was published on November 5th, 2022 -- the red-letter date in the history of science (67th anniversary) -- but ended up posted here today, December 6th. It's what makes time travel possible.
"Will we ever get a message from E.T.? We don't know. We also don't know when this is going to happen," Elliot said. "But we do know that we cannot afford to be ill-prepared scientifically, socially, and politically rudderless for an event that could turn into reality as early as tomorrow."
Priceless. God always gets there first to put His sticky prints on... everything. There's no escape!
“NET” stands for no earlier than.
Mars at opposition will meet up with the full moon next week (Dec. 7). Here's how to see it
I'll Be Right Here - E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial
Many have noted parallels between E.T. and Christ. Its not hard to see the similarities, E.T., like Christ, heels wounds, brings peace and comfort to those in trouble, is pursued by the government, dies, rises again, and ascends back into the heavens after promising to always be with his friend. He even signs his promise with a rainbow, a call back to the promise that God made to Noah in the book of Genesis after the Flood. There are also moments that call back to classical art representations of God and Christ. The teaser poster that features E.T. and Elliots fingers touching intentionally invokes the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, while the moment where E.T. stands in the back of the van , with a blanket draped over his shoulders and his heart light glowing calls to mind the image of the image of the Sacred Heart, which would usually depict Jesus with a glowing heart.
