Advanced Aliens

Arecibo is a 305 meter diameter radio telescope located in a natural depression in Puerto Rico.
ADVANCED ALIENS
Is it really pathetic that we are looking for aliens with radio? Do you really think they would be transmitting to us with old fashioned radio? Radio, on Earth, is archaic at 120 years old.

As our sun is young comparatively to other stars in the galaxy by 4 billion years, it suggests that the average alien could be 2 billion years more advanced than humans. A lot can happen in that time span of evolution.

Aliens 2 billion years more advanced than us will no longer have bodies as we think, and may evolve into pure energy or something beyond. An alien this advanced would not use old radio waves.

It's very doubtful we would know any technology for the required instantaneous transceiver type devices needed for across the galaxy conversation.

Given that radio travels at the speed of light, and would take one million years to reach one of the nearest galaxies, and another million years for the reply to reach Earth, why would any alien be so stupid as to use that form of communications?

Only Earthlings are so stupid to send a message that would take 50,000 years to answer round trip to and from M13 stars in the constellation Hercules, as we did in the 1970s with the Arecibo radio telescope.

Only an aggressive species like us would use radio, and our location calling card message might be a food menu telling aliens "the restaurant is located here, come eat us."

In fact, there is nothing on Earth that advanced aliens are interested in. So they have no need to come here in flying saucers or otherwise. Other planets have water, metals, and the same resources as the Earth, so why travel billions of light years to the Earth?

So let's get off our lazy stupid human arses and invent a form of instant communications for across the galaxy conversations. But really, will the reply be anything we can understand? We will be like unimportant single cell creatures to any alien advanced by 2 billion years.

Don't Eat Us Safety Program - Radio Telescope

Pioneer 10 & 11 Menu Map to find Earthlings
RADIO TELESCOPE SETI PROGRAM MOVES FORWARD

The Big Brain initiative has moved forward by developing a more robust SETI, Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, radio telescope program. Speaking on behalf of the BIG Brain Initiative, Humanoido describes the "Don't Eat Us" Radio Telescope safety program, where, you contact us, we don't contact you.

As part of the The Asian Arena International Taiwan Radio Open Sky-faced Balcony Observatory Laboratory 57, this incognito search initiative employs a radio receiver that collects evidence in the search for intelligent life in the universe but does not transmit or give out our coordinates.

In the "You contact us, we don't contact you," radio telescope program, the radio telescope lab searches for bright radio emissions from populated planets around stars. A signature represents the combined radio signature of a planetary culture, such as their initial radio, TV, communications, and other electronic devices that contribute to the emission of a zone of RF. The populated culture won't have a clue that we're listening. In fact, these planets are often separated by vast distances and the passage of great time from the Earth. In perhaps many examples, the civilization will have evolved thousands, even millions of years into the future, from the date stamp signature of the signal we receive.

Listening to radio source emissions is more benign than transmitting our coordinates that could potentially make the Earth a fast food menu stop in space. In the early 70's, Arecibo, Pioneer 10, and Pioneer 11 contained menu maps directing alien civilizations to our doorstep (see illustration). Foolish or not? We know that science fiction, more often than not, is an accurate predictor of the future. How many science fiction movies exist similar to Alien, Predator, and even Star Trek with war-like Klingons are bent on destroying Earthlings or using humans as food sources? Listening to other civilizations does not alert those civilizations to our position.
