Post:
Lasers would be too slow since the transmission speed would still be limited by the speed of light. Also, the beam would be subject to attenuation should it pass through planetary atmospheres and warping as it passed near large bodies with high orders of gravity.

It's more likely that they have figured out how to use gravity waves as a carrier and are imposing some form of modulation we have yet to detect.

Just my opinion.

We haven't found anything that can travel faster than the speed of light yet, so why wouldn't lasers or radio waves still be the best means of communication?

I CAN'T SEEM TO GET ANY SETI@HOME APPLICATIONS TO LOAD UP INTO MY BOINC MANAGER. ALL OTHER APPLICATIONS ARE WORKING. IT'S NOT EVEN GIVING ME THE CHOICE TO LOAD ONE UP. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS AND THANK YOU!
