It would be also nice if you'd cover the messages we have sent out there and the problems with those. Like the Arecibo message sent to M13. What would we see if we'd receive that message? (If I remember correctly, you wouldn't pick it up next to the background radiation). How would the message look like if someone does pick it up? (There have been experiments where Humans needed to decipher the message) How often and long were these messages sent? I think this would also really show how big the problem of alien communication really is :')

If that was the case you would see a clear pattern that can only be repeated consistently by some form of technology/intelligence. We are not trying to communicate. We are looking for signal patterns that cannot be explained by natural or human interference and glitches in our hardware. So at least we can know they are there. If you see bright fires arranged in patterns by some neolithic people that you can't see. You can safely assume some intelligence is doing that. And then the only thing you can do is sending random fire pattern back in the hope you can construct a language together to talk to each other in a rudimentary way.

There are all kinds of natural rather than artificial reasons that patterns can occur.

It was great working with you AGAIN, Astrum. As always, really interesting video. I'm of the mind that if we were to detect a signal from an alien civilization, it wouldn't be an intentional signal on their part. Humans emit signals we often aren't aware of on a day-to-day basis (pheromones, odors, etc). And while other, less developed animals can't detect radio signals, they can definitely pick up on these other signals. The same may be true for alien signals. Keep up the great work!

That's what I was thinking. The SHG signal for example was detected at the precise frequency that they were looking for, and they detected it at that precise frequency numerous times. The only explanation they could come up with was that it was a glitch in the system, but a system glitch is something that you'd expect to repeat with some frequency at every other observation as well. If this system glitch that recorded signals at the coincidentally exact frequency of hydrogen, the exact wavelength Drake suggested would be the one to look for, only happened with that particular signal from that location, than wouldn't this suggest that there was something about that particular signal that was keeping its frequency 1420MHz rather than a glitch in the system itself? Like, they literally found exactly what they were looking for and then doubted their own evidence because...it was too obvious? Increasingly I'm convinced the answer to the Fermi Paradox's "where is everyone" is "they're out there, we just don't want to believe it."

An interesting early find about FRB's when Duncan Lorimer was still confirming his discovery of FRBs; a microwave oven can give a false positive detection signal so an FRB most likely is generated by something that produces massive emissions of microwaves to be detected at the distances he was first finding the FRBs he later confirmed where not from local interference. And since humans are already capable of making an exponentially scaled down version emitor; we cannot totally rule out artificial sources being a possible emitor of some of the FRBs detected since the Lorimer Burst.

Hey, someone else who gets anxious about stuff that one is sure nobody misunderstands but one has to make sure anyway.

Life is probably quite common in the universe. It's just that we haven't quite realised the size of the universe. If we could zoom out and hold the universe in our hand like a basketball then life would seem to be everywhere, but we are less than the size of a quark in that ball so we'll never see anything really.

With how big the universe is and how much time there is and how we've only been human for an extremely small amount of time with only a sliver of that time being able to communicate (in and out)... There's no surprise to me that we haven't made contact. There could have been a hundred advanced civilizations that died out 200 million years ago. Maybe we are just late to the game? Or early? The size and scope of this universe is just impossibly staggering.

I am curious as to the impact the Heliosphere has on radio waves and if that effect is taken into account when listening to certain frequencies that are assumed to be of higher interest.

Remember that transmitting powerful radio signals is an Expensive endeavour. In spite of the figures we often hear (such as "50,000 watts!"), the actual energy received by any individual radio is quite weak. That is because broadcasting involves spreading a signal over a wide area. Our receivers have high-gain circuits to recover something usable. Other technological species would have good reasons to do the same, so if we find an undoubtable burble or squeak from anywhere out there, it will most probably be a CQ (Seek You) type of thing, not any of their broadcasts.

They may be so advanced that they have no need to even send signals. They may just appear right in front of our noses without ever announcing their arrival. That's a spooky thought.

If you want attention from intelligent species, you set up something in a band where they'd look, and have it broadcast small prime numbers in sequence starting with one. The only thing in nature that produces that sequence is the human mind, at least thus far. This was Carl Sagan's idea, I recall hearing it back in the 1970s.

And the honest truth is all they would have to do is blink the signal. Blink once. Pause. Blink twice. Pause. Blink 3 times. Pause longer and then repeat. Doing this and doing it repeatedly honestly is all anyone would need to do to show some form of intelligence exists.

I love the ideas for First contacts. My guess there would be a little data silence at first to give both partys the ability to think. Without communication, the meeting site would probaply become the main point of idea exchange, to give partys the ability to be sceptic. Just because some people think that aliens would be truely alien with their culture, you need logic to build machines to be spacefading, and logic is the baseline for establishing contact and respect. After that phase, communication would begin without world leaders but exchange of cultural data to have a base to talk and trust the partner. Just because statistically your friends have more friends than you, one can guess that the species will most likely be more advanced and could have done this procedure already. Their move can either be suspicious waiting time or polite waiting for humans to catch up, because if extraterrestrian scifi has also covered this topic, you dont want to freak out unstable civilisations to give vantage points that could disrupt power structures. After the akward phase, ideas will beginn to flow, again culture and information would be the main trade here, maybe technology if either one is willing to commit. Now physical contact would be of interest for both to bring them closer together, but where can civil exchange happen in this case? Trade could be a driving force but even without good spacefaring technologies, this akward phase can only end if people can interact TLDR: humans and aliens are like akward exchange students, give them some group project.

What an amazing idea. Real fun food for thought. Thanks for this.

I think the reality we as humans will have to contend with is that we are most likely either the first- or the last sentient species within the observable universe for the time being. If anything we might be the forerunners of sentient life as a whole and by the time we are an interstellar species, other species will be seeing us as the visitors. At least this is the most logical thing to think about for the time being until concrete evidence says otherwise.

I have a hard time wondering what we could offer in trade to any species capable of reaching us other than out art in the broadest sense. Fingers crossed theyre nice and thats the case Edit: maybe also general info about our biosphere and anthropology, but ultimately the trade would be information and creativity. If they can travel to us Id imagine their material needs are met. 2nd edit: Slavery, eating us, and wanting hot bitches do not count as trade... please understand the assignment

Wait, FRB's are from extremely powerful magnetic fields? Didn't an experiment that created a warp in spacetime using magnetism JUST occur last year? The experiment was designed to test if magnetism could warp spacetime in a way that would make FTL travel possible, and they discovered it could. That is insane Edit: The original theory for this experiment is called the Alcubierre Drive.

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are not necessarily caused by magnetic fields, but they are believed to be related to highly energetic astrophysical phenomena such as supernovae or neutron star mergers. The exact mechanism behind FRBs is still not completely understood, and there are several competing theories. As for the experiment you mentioned, I am not aware of any experiment that has demonstrated the ability of magnetism to create a warp in spacetime that would make faster-than-light (FTL) travel possible. According to our current understanding of physics, FTL travel is not possible due to the constraints of relativity. There have been some speculative proposals involving exotic physics such as wormholes or Alcubierre drives, but these ideas are purely theoretical at this point.

If I recall it right, the experiment was using magnetism as an HOMOLOGOUS medium to research the required shape of the Alcubierre drive. In the same way that some experiments on black holes were done using liquid mediums. So if we obtain the expected outcome it really proves nothing, but it's just a hint that in the real medium it might behave in a similar way. Again, I vaguely remember that from last year or so.

Attended a weekly roundtable on this topic a few years ago. After listening for a few sessions. I had to jump in. Some people had recognized that we have carbon chauvinism. We are certain that life anywhere else must be based on carbon, as we are. Due to it's helpful chemical properties. But there are others which can be substituted. Likewise there is also math chauvinism. Our math works in discrete digits. This is founded on our physiognomy. We have 10 fingers, no surprise our math is (mostly) base 10. We also have base 12 and base 60 in use, inherited from ancient Mesopotamian civilizations. But these can be thought of as branches of base 10. Base 12 is just base 10 using your hands differently, fist is one, thumb is two and so on. What if extraterrestrial intelligences do not have hands, they have instead a single amoeba like tentacle that can change shape? They might then base their math on volumes or something like set theory. The concept of discrete integers, in a series from smallest to largest may not come along until later. How would they build computers? Probably something like a fluidic computer, such as has been built for military use in vehicles intended to withstand an EMP. The ones we have built are not very fast and are good for one task only. But imagine what decades of miniaturization and refinement would do for the technology. These beings may not broadcast digital or integer numbers, but in volumes and amplitude. Perhaps logarithmic or power law as a base?

Honestly, with how huge the universe is, aliens might not even use any form of communication understandable with our technology, mathematics, or signals. For all we know, aliens might use any number of signaling methods completely unknown to us, and that we couldn't understand unless we came into contact with them. Even bizzare and fantastical ideas that seem out of fantasy, like using alternate dimensions as platforms to trade information, or somehow developing means to use controlled cosmic phenomena like morse-code-esque sound waves or olfactory signals broadcasted with some weird technique into the void. Or maybe alien communication could simply be something beyond our comprehension. Keep in mind that invention, like evolution, is as variable as the environment which breeds it, and our technologies represent only a sliver of potential technologies that could theoretically be developed in response to certain pressures. Alien communications and technology, if it exists, might be so bizzare that, even if it's technically on our same level, it would be so weird to us that it'd blend in with the other bizzare phenomena we observe in the universe.

I wonder if you could use the clockwork radio principle to power a probe that won’t be needed to be activated for decades, or possibly even longer. Like a probe sent to Alpha Centauri perhaps, with Solar Radiometers on the probe to both activate the probe as it nears the Solar system its aimed towards, and recharge the clockwork mechanism like a giant self rewinding watch that never stops running. The electronics would have to be powered like a clockwork radio, negating the need for batteries or Nuclear power, which will degrade over extremely long periods. This is the issue with the voyager probes as they age, despite the fact that the electronics and computers within the probe are functioning perfectly after nearly half a century of constant use. The probe would have to be large and capable of making independent decisions, which may require a large amount of older hardier computer chips. You could even go a step further, and have small landers on the larger probe that could be fired and directed towards other planets. They could be hardy probes, with a self contained non rechargeable clockwork power source of their own. Preferably a hardy probe to gather planetary data quickly, similar to the Venetian and Titan probes of the past. The only issue would be having a secondary rechargeable clockwork mechanism to power the transmitter, which would have to be very powerful for the extremely long distances to earth. Storage of information until broadcast would be vital. If Spacex can reduce the cost of launches further, perhaps we could have a mother ship probe that could launch smaller satellites like a Clockwork Cassinis, to examine planetary systems and their moons, as well as launch the aforementioned smaller probes This is a bit long winded and hypothetical but its worth thinking about!

Omnidirectional signals we, or aliens, send will very quickly become so weak that they can't be distinguished from background radiation even if we look for patterns.

Radio waves would be a very poor means of interstellar communication, and very likely an extremely short-lived form of communications for any civilization. The chances that we and some other nearby civilization would, in effect, both be using the galactic version of smoke signals as a form of communication, at the exact same time in both evolutions, are so close to zero as to, effectively, BE zero. Worse, the question is most definitely not, "Where are they?", but rather, "When are they?" Experience tells us that civilizations arise and then die out, fairly quickly. If a nearby civilization dies out while we are still in caves, or vice versa, we will never know they were there, or worse, we may receive their signals ten thousand years after they are gone. And since the goal of a civilization is to move out into the galaxy before the next extinction event arises, chances are excellent that most civilizations fall short of that goal. If we find another "advanced" civilization, it is extremely likely that we will find only its remnants. No, what we should be doing is searching for a faster-than-light form of communications, because another civilization is far more likely to be using that, than the smoke signals we keep insisting will work. If we are going to continue to look for radio signals, then we should also look for Pony Express riders... the odds of success are about the same!

How about Jupiter? We know from our exoplanet data that Jupiter is an anomaly in our solar system bc most gas giants exist very close to their stars, how important was it in not only providing earth with water via comet impacts but also protecting us from harmful collisions? So you see just because we know life is possible in the universe because we exist, our sample size of 1 doesn’t provide us with very much to go off of.
