Hello from the other side: Scientists to start sending messages into universe in hopes of getting a reply from aliens

That is a most stupid thing to so. If an advanced life form finds out we are here, we could invade and take over.Sasha
No way. Don't tell a possibly far more intelligent and technologically advanced species that we are here! We have no idea what they'd be like and how they would view us. We could be fodder for them and they might annihilate us! Seriously.Arthur FraynbergReply tofos
Sheer hoax alien threat propaganda, they keep programming the masses with the idea the aliens are there. See the video "Bill Cooper Alien Agenda". We've been sending messages since the first radio broadcasts, if they require special types of communications, they're not that smart or they don't want to look.. Any scientist would already know this, in fact in the early days of SETI no propaganda about SETI was complete without them reminding us how far our transmissions have spread. So why do they think the aliens need special communications now? They don't, they just want to keep conditioning us to believe "first contact" is around the corner, because it is in their script, so when the curtain opens on the full blown alien hoax, you'll want to believe like children want to believe in Santa. This is the establishment pretending to be your parents, and telling their excited children that if they send a special note to a special address, Santa will read it and come.Kitewader
Surely, surely this should be regulated and controlled. We can't have some white coat nerd exposing possible our race to possible annihilationRachael
Remember what astrophysicist Stephen Hawking said about being wary of seeking contact with alien civilizations. He said that intelligent aliens may rapacious marauders, roaming the cosmos in search of resources to plunder and planets to conquer and colonize.The Fat Dad
Listen to Hawking. Last thing we need is any more help wrecking this place.GrumpyPhart
The surest sign that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe,is that none of it has tried to contact usWoody100
Bit silly sending out messages where to find us, what if it's the romulans or the Borg?KelnReply toWoody100
OK, let's be realistic here. First, we've been sending radio waves into space for a century now. No, they aren't particularly strong at any great distance, but they are there and have traveled 100+ light years by now (the first ones). Second, any alien civilization that is technologically advanced enough to cross the vast distances of space between star systems is advanced enough to find us with or without our sending signals. Any such civilization would have mapped out life-bearing planets in their vicinity by now. Most likely, if there is some space-faring civilization near us, they've already visited and observed and wouldn't make contact until they feel it is warranted. The idea that they would attack us is silly considering they would have overcome resource and energy challenges just to be able to travel across the stars and would have no need to invade planets.
