| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
In my opinion, there are some places in our universe, where live existed, exists or will exist. But the technological gap and the cultural differences are so gigantic that we will never get in contact with other civilizations.
I will tell you, why not: Human beings still have problems in communicating with each other and with other forms of live on our planet. As long as we are not able even to communicate with dolphins or monkeys, a communication with other civilizations will be impossible. The Arecibo-radio message was a test to find a "universal" language - but how do we want to know that extraterrestrial live will understand these terms of communication???
Nevertheless I believe that SETI and SETI@home are good projects. SETI demonstrates us that we have to care for ourselves and our planet as long as we do not find any alternatives. Via SETI@home many people all over the world get into contact with each other. So human beings try to understand each other at first. That is a good step forward for a peaceful and tolerant world, fighting against isolationism, aggressivity, warfare and any monopole of power.
Only together we will be able to fight all future difficulties. SETI@home teaches us that the best way. When will all governments and presidents of this world learn that lesson?! |
