Often UFOlogists joke about the SETI program, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence. It uses the radio receivers from Arecebo in Puerto Rico and other technologies including your own home computer to listen to and process specific signals coming in from outer space.
They’re looking for radio signals that would indicate an intelligent origin.
Facetiously referred to as “ET call home.” based on the 1980 movie “ET”.
I’ve always wondered what if extraterrestrials didn’t have ears?
Seriously, this is news and worth watching. Big questions about whether we could or should answer messages from outer space. We’ve already exposed our entire culture to the universe from our own radio and tv transmissions. 50+ light years away ( the distance light travels in a year in a vacuum ) our transmissions of “I Love Lucy” and “Superman” have reached several dozen star systems. If anyone is there and they’re searching the skies too, they’re wondering if Lucy will have a boy or a girl.
