If aliens really contact us, what will happen?

What will people do when they find aliens? Answer well . "butter but live"?

Aliens in recent years have been the most interesting topic in the scientific world. There have even been reports of suspicion of receiving aliens' signals, with strange evidence that the opposition faction could not deny.

However, the truth is that until now, people have not been able to conclude "there are aliens or not". But what if someday, people get the message from a non-Earth force?

According to Andrew Siemion, who is most likely to be able to communicate with "alien", people actually have no specific plans.

The largest alien director of the alien search project ever: Breakthrough Listen said, he himself only spends a few minutes a day thinking about that moment - when people really find out. alien creature.

" About 5 - 10 minutes before going to bed, I think about what people will do. It will be really hard to predict what the world will do with that alien signal. But I personally believe that. will be positive reactions. " - Siemion said.

Whether to respond to those signals or not, humanity has no specific intention.Stephen Hawking - the famous theoretical physicist involved in the project - has repeatedly warned that sending any message can lead to catastrophic consequences for mankind, even the doom world.

Stephen Hawking believes that answering alien signals will have serious consequences.

"Perhaps the answer is whether or not the problem is related to the entire planet, " Siemion said.

If disaster happens, it cannot be controlled

In fact, there is a guide to what to do when receiving an alien message . But that's just the message, not any international rules or laws.

For example, the International Academy of Aviation Science (IAA) has a set of rules, which require that anyone who receives signals outside Earth should not respond. However, even if someone sent back thousands of other signals, there would be no prosecution.

Moreover, scientists cannot stop people who have enough tools to send messages. This is also the reason why Stephen Hawking must constantly post, constantly warning about what might happen when exposed to an alien civilization.

However, despite being able to communicate, perhaps no one in this generation could experience a complete conversation, or be seen . Star War happened.

Siemion said, the most potential place to nurture life close to Earth is Proxima b at 4.2 light-years away, but most likely there is no life at all.

Proxima b makes it difficult for proxima to nurture life.

Even if it is, the time to send and receive messages will reach . 8 years, too long to continue the story.

So, answering the message of the aliens at least will not cause consequences, but the next generation will suffer. Anyhow, sending it or not, it must prove that they are real.
