Can aliens track to Earth thanks to this message?

The image of the couple will be binary encoded before being sent into space as part of a project called "Signals in the Milky Way" (BITG).

According to Express, the two people appearing in the picture are designed to wave to increase sympathy and not to frighten the aliens.

Scientists believe that aliens can detect this kind of encryption.

'The binary system is likely to be universal to all intelligences. Binary is the simplest form of mathematics, as it involves only two opposing states: zero and one, yes or no, black or white.

The couple appeared in a waving position to avoid scaring the aliens.

In addition to the image of a male and female couple, NASA scientists also plan to send other coded signals into space such as basic mathematical and physical concepts, information about the biochemical composition of life. on Earth to establish a communication channel.

To broadcast this message into the center of the Milky Way, the team plans to use the Seti Institute's Allen Telescope Network in California and the 500m Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope in China.

To ensure that the message reaches the aliens, astrophysicists will broadcast it to a dense star cluster near the center of the Milky Way. This location was chosen by scientists who believe that it is the most promising location for alien life.

This is not the first time scientists have sent out an encrypted message to aliens.

In 1974, astronomers sent a similar message "Beacon in the Galaxy" using the Arecibo Observatory located in Puerto Rico. At that point, the message was directed toward a cluster of stars in our galaxy, about 25,000 light-years from Earth.

However, sending messages to help aliens locate Earth is still receiving mixed opinions.

Genius physicist Stephen Hawking once warned that sending signals into space contains many dangers.

"My view is that the risks and benefits of transmitting messages are both small. It would be better and safer if we could go into space and find neighbors," said Dr. Anders Sandberg, PhD student at the Institute for the Future of Humanity at the University of Oxford put forward a view on sending messages to extraterrestrials.
