| Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
|---|
I've heard people say that life here just evolved by chance into what it is today. It's no wonder they live here in Las Vegas. Not only are these folks bad at math but they actually believe that it's possible that life here just happened to turn out the way it is. Yeah right.
Don't think a beacon sending info is such a great idea. We haven't figured out how to get along with other folks on this planet yet. Toss a space-traveling race into the mix and we'll figure out the hard way that, as a species, we're pretty low on the evolutionary scale. So if we did send info it would have to say, "Stay away until we grow up a little". Another 1000 years or so would be a good start.
I run SETI to help speed the process of contacting an intelligent species. Shortly after contact with antoher species becomes public, many people on this planet will have to give up their beliefs about life on this planet. They'll have to face things as they are rather than how they've been told they are. Personally, I'm looking forward to that day and if this project can speed the process of realization up a little, I'm in.
