There is an old saying that goes something like “The birds never sing when a cat is around.” Sometimes being heard is not desirable, especially when there’s someone or something around that would potentially do you harm. Well, us humans have been broadcasting radio waves for over 100 years, meaning that any aliens within 100 light years could have possibly heard us, since radio waves travel at the speed of light (they are light waves). We’ve been ‘singing’ for quite some time now, and some of the aliens might not have noticed, and others might not be hostile, but I wonder if any ‘cats’ might have heard us. Are we sitting on a ticking time bomb? My thought on this subject would be for us to technologically advance as quickly as possible, so that we will be as prepared as possible.
