  • Let’s assume that extra-terrestrial civilizations exist in our galaxy. Like us, they are conducting their own SETI research to find us, see us and study us. What would they see? What methods could they use to learn about us? What technologies have they invented to see and listen to us. And finally, what information will they get from our civilization.
    Join us for a thought-provoking discussion on the possibility of extraterrestrial civilizations observing our own planet. Our panel of experts, Seth Shostak Senior researcher at the SETI Institute and Paul Dalba, research scientist at the SETI Institute and 51 Pegasi b Fellow of the Heising-Simons Foundation, will present the latest research and theories on this fascinating topic.
    Don’t miss this opportunity to expand your knowledge and engage in scientific discourse. Molly Bentley, Executive Producer and co-host at Big Picture Science moderates this conversation.

    In Crick’s book Life Itself: Its Origin and Nature, he writes: “The immensity of complex coded and precisely sequenced information (in DNA) is absolutely staggering. The DNA evidence speaks of intelligent, information bearing design. For life to form by chance is mathematically virtually impossible.” What's more, scientists have no idea what caused the Cambrian explosion when animals with brains, eyes, skeletons, appendages, hearts, etc. appeared out of nowhere from simple multi-cell organisms like sponges, overnight. Fermi's Paradox explained? Not to mention how DNA appeared on Earth only 600 million years after the Earth was formed. Something very curious going on here.

      This is exactly correct. My first book 20 years ago (where I quote Francis Crick from our conversations about meaning) I showed how all life and even the universe had to come from an alien intelligence. But it’s not like people think- or don’t think😂-because they just project the themes of what we do here “out there”. We are in a rapid transition phase as humans. This is not “it”. I already found unequivocal evidence and proof of an extra-terrestrial intelligence at work. My more recent articles and books keep getting rejected. Even though I am right, because people cannot imagine how it works. Aliens are supposed to come in ufos. 😂 There’s an “information signature” I talk about in my book.

    Ok, as a radio guy, let’s take a look at our own recent history. RF has only been emitted by humans for about 100 years. High power within the last 50 years. SUPER high power within the last 30 - the now defunct SPAWAR space fence at 216 MHz transmitting about 9 giga-watts ERP with stability of a millionth of a Hz. This would reasonably be detected as the beam briefly illuminates another system. But there is a concern here. As our technology has advanced, it has become more efficient, and therefore less power is required. The huge CW radar was replaced by smaller, pinpoint beam, pulsed radars at 1000 times less power. Television is now lower power DTV, and the overall trend continues to decrease. So, radio will probably remain detectable for maybe another 50 years. Your mobile phone comment is a great example. The signals are minute. A window of 100 years is but a “blip” in time. Carl Sagan described the next stage as a purposefully curious civilization, building transmitters and receivers purposefully with extreme power and apertures to both look for and send messages. The same could be said of high power lasers. A “stage 2” civilization actively transmitting would be required. In addition, there are interstellar effects such as dispersion, Doppler, and even Raman shifting taking away useable energy.
    So far, the most modern, and promising technology is sensitive spectral capability to see natural and biological markers. Chemistry is a whole dimension.

      ​@@SzymczykProductions Yeah, it's a valid fucking complaint. It's all over the place. I don't put on a video that's over an hour long to sit there with my handle on the volume control. I got roommates. So either they complain because my speaker volume is randomly way too loud or I experience actual pain because I can't anticipate the changes quick enough to turn headphones down. How is someone expected to listen to any of what their saying if they also have a job to do.
      A job that could have been done by whoever recorded it, edited it, uploaded it. Several opportunities to check for and fix major audio issues. No one would even have to listen to it to know. Just import the audio track into a program like audacity (which is a free program so it doesn't even cost anything) and it could be seen that the levels are all over the place at a glance. And there's features in such programs (which one could learn to use from a few youtube video tutorials) that let one fix such issues.
      It's not the kind of thing that should ever get past a team. That's part of why there should be more than one set eyes on it. Something that bad usually doesn't get passed a whole team. unless that whole team is one person. Maybe the same person who was very concerned about getting various camera angles for no good reason. But at the same time couldn't be bothered to make sure filming equipment wasn't in frame half the time.
      No hate on the person or people who filmed it and tossed it up. maybe they were not invested. maybe they haven't done much in the way of editing or recording. I was trying to be nice. I left a three word comment that expressed my discontent so that perhaps someone responsible for it would see it, take it on board and do better in the future. Your comment three weeks after the fact is what brought me back to elaborate.

    There's a few things we should be doing in detection locally instead of looking out into the abyss. Maybe the giant tear in the magnetic field might give an indication of an anomaly or a large quantity of a material that can interfere with the magnetosphere.
