This one might be the first music aliens hear from humans.
This recording is on Voyager. This is the most basic primal cry of human existence. If you don't get it the first time you listen to it, please listen again. Teach your kids. This is the ultimate foundation to all blues.

Light moves faster than matter but space is the vastness beyond comprehension.
Statistically speaking, anyone hearing the recordings on the Voyager crafts will already be familiar with Jason Beaver.
Hello. Hola. Ciao. Whatup. Yo. -fist bump- (evil grimace)
By the time they have the feeling we all bang bitches and hoes and kill our best friend for an advantage in the game, I am pretty sure "Nobody's Fault But Mine" would have been a better message. Sagan and Druyan had no ear for irony and their crystal ball was clouded.

He stole that song from Zepplin or the stones can't remeber wich one
Re: This one might be the first music aliens hear from humans.
I never thought it was such a good idea to send messages into space.
Although I'm sure our Radio Frequencies travel pretty far.
I saw a show where Stephen Hawking revised his prior opinion and thinking, about trying to contact other worlds.
He said, What makes us think that they would be friendly to us?
We have a lot of resources on earth that may attract planet raiders.
By the way I was abducted in 1978.

Re: This one might be the first music aliens hear from humans.
Statistically, we don't have anything to worry about. The problem is physics.
No matter what Michio Cuckoo says. Mo matter what Discovery Networks and the failed brand called Nat Geo says. No matter what Einstein and Rosen said.
Civilizations do not last long enough to come up with a way around physics. The first property of the Universe is infinitesimal density over the vast desolate void of space. There is not on average enough energy in a cubic meter to power anything more than a small sailboat at around .00009kts/hr.
Good luck with that.
If you ever found a signal to target they would be dead and gone and not where you expected when your skiff arrived.
On the other hand, the twirpy electrical universe theorist are onto something but 90% of that is drugs, 9% is mental illness, and about 1% is the thing to consider. After considering it I think the problem is building a capacitor big enough to take advantage of flux potential across a megaparsec.
The center of our own galaxy is around 8500 parsecs from your front door. The light you see from the galactic center is around 30,000 years old.
Life in the Universe is a sure thing. It's all over the place. We are soaking in it. There are planets everywhere.
Astro sciences of the late 20th and early 21st centuries is a jobs program rife with waste. Things like Kepler. Find extra solar planets and then what? We know they are there and what good would it do us. Not a question. No mark.
Ok, my cosmorant is over for a minute.

Yeah. Outreach about outreach about public funding. Sciscam.
I could flail about as eloquemtly about classical music but you aren't going to enjoy it more or even go further than thinking I am smarter about something than other people and I am right.
There is no method. That is the problem. To scale the Universe one would have to consume it in toto. Big bite we don't have the mouth for.

Forget cold fusion ...... what I want is a warp engine that runs on dark matter.

Re: This one might be the first music aliens hear from humans.
Time to send up some new musical selections. Beefheart, Conlon Nancarrow, and country rap. If the little green men figure out how to play it, they'll know enough to stay away and not bother us.
down technical blind alleys . . .

No, no, no! That's probably some type of Galactic Felony ...... with mandatory penalty of Earth becoming a celestial garbage pit. Wait ..... maybe that already happened?

Too late. C-Rap has been around for.. long enough. That pretend "artist" what's his name is already live just beyond Proxima Centauri.
The best/worst they could ever do is rebroadcast 70's sitcoms back at us.

I have no doubt those guys are cookes and it pisses me off when they present their farout fantisies as fact.But I don't think we know everything there is to know about physics .Reeltarded wrote:Statistically, we don't have anything to worry about. The problem is physics.

You know a hundred years ago scienctist were sure they understood stuff and a lot of it they didn't.
If you think about how far technology has advanced in the last hundred years.It's baffiling really.Think about a person in 1913.What would they think now?They would be astounded by everyday things. Imagine what It make be like in a hundred years?If we are still here.
If we can figure out how to control A fusion reaction.The universes most abundant resource will be at our disposal.
Of course there is a lot of rich powerful people that are making sure that doesn't happen.
All the power we can ever use is in the Sun,wind,tides,Barometric changes,even a gallon of water has tremendous potential.
But the most powerful can't control those things so it is up to the people to make it happen.Doesn't look good so far.
So whose to say in a couple undred years we can';t discover a way to bend space and time.
Edit:Ok so I'm talkin out my ass.Just let me pretend I know what I'm talking about I need this.

Re: This one might be the first music aliens hear from humans.
Ceeb! You're a genius!!
(without mentioning the others before you or that they werw wrong too and nature owes us nothing or promises nothing)
Consider the plus which is fusion leaves you with a new fuel that burns slightly less efficiently than the fuel it was before, but in turn coverts .7% of it's mass into pure energy. You can go fast for a long time on things you find in fresh roadkill. If we could convert a common thumbtack into 100% energy in a single instant you could raise the mass of Mount Everest 6km into the air. No shit. Do the math, I ain't your bitch.
Still, it's not even about the fuel. It's so far away you can't get there from here. What would you make the ship of? How would you stay alive? What about when you hit intergalactic space and there is nothing to stop massive particle storms and what about that molecule of hydrogen that would have a force of.. gimme a minute. Ok, I can't do the calculations. Have you ever seen what happens in a particle accelerator? That's your spaceship. Relativity is a confounded bitch of a thing.
When you go make sure to pack a cardboard cutout of Brian Cox to pose for Facebook wall posts.
Mass = Energy over the (C) speed of light squared. So at nearly the speed of light before your 2.4kg spaceship becomes as massive as everything in the Universe.. umm.. nearly infinite. You could destroy the Universe with something as large as maybe a toaster if you had the right plan.
There is no plan. You can't make relativistic toast, but never stop trying to think it out. That is the best plan. Imagination is the journey as much as tasting and smelling. Yes, I just farted.

Re: This one might be the first music aliens hear from humans.
I wasn't really talkin bout fuel to propel us into space.I was talkin bout fuel to free us from the drudgery of every day lifeSo people could further technology as long as its about proffit that will never happen.
The only way to travel through space is not to go faster but make the distance and time shorter.
