What if the Romulans answer?

According to the inverse square law, for every time you double the distance of a communications transmission, the signal is only 1/4 the strength it was at its source. At ten times the distance, the strength of the signal would only be one hundredth as great.

Space is the very definition of distance. Space also has its own background noise. So in practical terms, when a transmission drops below the level of background noise, it is no longer detectable.

With our most sensitive listening devices, we can just barely detect high power transmissions given by probes just at the perimeter of our solar system.

Better to read the WORD and gain an understanding of the times in which we live. JESUS is coming soon.

We borrow money at interest to send nessages to no one as if the noise from our power grid was not 50 times brighter than the sun. It changes its tone from 60 hz to 50hz and back every 12 hours. If they don’t see that they’re blind anyways.

A message to aliens? Is it in Spanish, and from the Democratic party?

[VideoDoctor]

Next year, scientists will send messages to search for aliens

Just keep repeat broadcast playing Adele's "Hello" cut until they answer.

For those who may not be familar with the song "Hello."

 

"Hello" Lyrics

Hello, it's me
I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet
To go over everything
They say that time's supposed to heal ya
But I ain't done much healing

Hello, can you hear me
I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be
When we were younger and free
I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet

There's such a difference between us
And a million miles

Hello from the other side
I must have called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

Hello, how are you?
It's so typical of me to talk about myself I'm sorry
I hope that you're well
Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happened

It's no secret that the both of us
Are running out of time

So hello from the other side
I must have called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

Ooooohh, anymore
Ooooohh, anymore
Ooooohh, anymore
Anymore

Hello from the other side
I must have called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home
Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter it clearly doesn't tear you apart anymore

The METI opposition group, which includes scientists like Stephen Hawking, argues that since we have no idea what ET might be like, sending a message into the cosmos comes with a huge existential risk. If the aliens happen to be friendly, no problem. But if they're hostile, that means we're essentially sending out a beacon that says "ATTACK Exterminate HERE."
