We all know what happens next...
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.

We all assume that it has to be some fantastic technology. What if it turns out to be something simple we haven’t thought of yet? We would then be able to travel unimaginable distances with our other current technology. We might be just as smart besides that.
Yes, I think so.
