How to use Alien Relay Probes For a Galactic Internet | with John Gertz

from John Michael Godier's Event Horizon · host John Michael Godier

Are there alien artifacts near the sun?"Almost all SETI searches to date have explicitly targeted stars in the hope of detecting artificial radio or optical transmissions. It is argued that extra-terrestrials (ET) might regard sending physical probes to our own Solar System as a more efficient means for sending large amounts of information to Earth. Probes are more efficient in terms of energy and time expenditures; may solve for the vexing problem of Drake's L factor term, namely, that the civilization wishing to send information may not coexist temporally with the intended recipient; and they alleviate ET's reasonable fear that the intended recipient might prove hostile."ET Probes: Looking Here as Well as Therehttps://arxiv.org/abs/1609.04635JOHN GERTZ is the President and CEO of Zorro Productions, Inc.
