Blip as in SETI

0 Conversations

One problem that SETI must be thinking about is "Do they have a radio, Do they care?" As a world we have had technology for the most shortest time imaginable. On a cosmic scale, if there was life on an other planet that evolved from the same "big bang" that created us, they would be at the same level of technology as us. 200 years ago we did not have a radio, neither did they. So if they live on the other side of the galaxy then a signal sent by "them" would reach us in around a thousand years or so. But if they live on the other side of the universe, we will over take our signal to them when we go look for interesting curios. Lets hope they are friendly and understanding when we meet them.
