.On Nov 16, 1974, human beings sent their very first message to the superstars in an effort to get in touch with space beings. They did this utilizing what was actually at that point the biggest broadcast telescope in the world, located at the Arecibo Observatory in Puerto Rico. A team of researchers led by Frank Drake and Carl Sagan sent their notification to the M13 star cluster.
The notification was actually filled in binary code and also had info concerning human DNA. It additionally included bodies of a human, the solar system and the Arecibo telescope. The idea was that if any kind of invaders were to acquire the signal and determine just how to translate it, they would certainly recognize where it stemmed from.
Considering that M13 is actually 25,000 light-years away, it will take 25,000 years for any type of M13 invaders to hear our information– if they are actually even out there. The Arecibo notification is only one of a number of messages aimed for extraterrestrials. Our team have additionally consisted of messages on several spacecraft, including Trailblazer and Voyager.
