Scientists can be so boring.:thumbup: Well, they do say stupidity is entertaining to the stupid, but I guess I'll just have to try and guess how entertained you are. Belief is what you need when there's no proof. |

To be serious, I did not claim the signals had intelligent origins, and as you say they are believed to have been generated by objects way out in space. Regarding the probe which was sent out in 72, it's truly amazing it's signals can still be detected all these years later, when it was only designed to operate for five years,so there doesnt appear to be very much out there to attenuate the signal to any great degree. Imagine the signal as a bubble expanding out from a source, ok? Like a balloon expanding at the speed of light. If I remember aright, the formula for the surface of a sphere is 4 pi r squared. In other words, the surface area is many, many times the radius and increases massively as does the radius of the sphere. Imagine covering the sphere in dots, and then inflating it hugely. When you start, the radius is one, the dots are touching, and you get 1000 dots to the sq inch. The radius doubles, and the surface are increases more than tenfold. Then you are getting 100 dots to the sq inch. Double the radius, and the surface goes to 30 odd times the radius, and the dots drop to about 30 per sq inch. That's like the signal attenuating. Before you get much bigger, you will be lucky if you have one dot in a sq mile. We can pickup the signal because we have huge receivers which are pointed at precisely the right bit of sky. |
Re: Unexpected visitors
I was fiddling about with my satellite dish after a storm when I thought I had succeeded in getting a message from aliens. Sadly, when I tuned in the channel, it was Gordon Brown rattling on about boom and bust.
I was on my way out to give the dish a good kicking when my wife reminded me that I had found her Eastenders channel after all. |

Two of the above are believed accurate, Two of them illusions. I'm sure Bill will know the answers. Oh, by the way, no sign of Gordon Brown and Mandelson up there yet, but we can always live in hope. |

Strange things happening out there according to today's news.

Hey ho, well the cloud of alcohol is certainly out there, there is an enormous amount of chemicals out there in space, and if there can be rains of fishes, then I don't see why a jellyfish can't get in on the act. They used to think there was a face on mars, but it turned out just to be an eroded rock formation. I shudder to think what newspapers you read to get the other two..... |

Surprised at you Bill,I thought for sure you'd get them all right.
Was that the toolbag that female astronaut dropped on the space station? I'd assumed it had burnt up on re-entry. |
