True, but someone will come up with a "databank" of sorts. Who knows, we might backup on DNA or space, as in cosmos.
Is what we type right now escaping in space like TV transmissions? Any physics major here?
- Retra 9y agoSome of it goes into space (if it's transmitted the right way), but most will be drowned in noise. None of that matters though, since you can't get in front of the outgoing signal to receive it at a future date. It would have to be reflected, which would also introduce a large amount of noise.
- tryingagainbro 9y agoThanks makes sense. We see what is coming to us, and maybe nothing will be reflected considering expansion and all. BUT it is out there and an advanced civilization might figure it out (not that they might need it but curiosity)
