Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
I can't decide between a belief that no species will ever develop the means to travel between the stars quickly, or that humans are of no interest to other species. We are so primitive and so ant-like that at best we will attract Galactic Pest Patrol inc., is my current preference. I do believe in God but I don't align myself to any religion (including science). Our planet may be of interest as a holiday destination for a species looking for something just a little different, or for good hunting. There may be galactic laws preventing aligned planets using us for sport, but I wouldn't bet on it. Don't transmit anything. We are only likely to embarrass ourselves, especially with dubya holding so much power. SETI is an example of great science but I think too much science is mortgage payment motivated and although 'adding to the sum of human knowledge', not really helping anyone. |
