Thoughts about SETI and SETI@home |
1. ET's do exist, the benefits to mankind will come from the ability to
be able to receive knowledge from a more advanced civilization than our own.
2. I do not believe it is necessary to transmit a beacon, they know we
exist and have chosen not to communicate with us due to our primitive
and warring nature.
3. This is mankinds greatest adventure in addition to it being the ultimate
test of our ability to participate with a higher social structure without
resorting to violence. I am only one of so many who believe in what SETI
is trying to accomplish, ours is a first primitive start, we have pointed
the way. It may not bear fruit but will lead to the next step that is
necessary to fullfil the intended objective. THE VOYAGE HAS BEGUN,
LEAD AND OUR CHILDREN WILL FOLLOW. |
