Is it arrogant to think we will ever make contact with alien life forms with in the next century?

Answer 1

No not Arrogant. Wishful. What makes us think they want to meet us? LOL

Answer 2

No, it's a real chance. Right now, thousands of volunteers are giving computer power to analyse data received by radiotelescopes, hoping to decode some intelligent signature. The project is SETI@home and needs a huge calculation capability, so the task is spreaded across thousands of computers around the world. Such a system could well achieve the extremely hard task to extract intelligent transmissions from the noise that dominates the received signals. If someone out there is transmitting some meaningful signal, now we have a chance to recognise it. Think that the universe is 25 billion years old, so a lot of civilisations could have got the time to rise, transmit and fall, without counting the active ones. Think how many alien breeds could be in the universe: if only a minimal part of them transmitted something, there must be a lot of signals incoming. I hope we will be able to understand their messages.
Bye.

Answer 3

I seriously doubt that we'll ever visit or be visited by alien life forms. The universe is very big and the speed of light is a definitively limiting factor. The nearest star (Proxima Centauri) is more than 4 light years from the Sun.
"...it would take us 8,200 years to reach the nearest star if we were traveling 340,000 mph (which is 10 times faster than our fastest spaceship)."
But radio and TV waves travel at the speed of light, and we have been broadcasting (unintentionally) since the 1920s, so there may be life forms out there enjoying "The Shadow" or "Gilligan's Island." Whether such life forms choose to respond or not is a question I am not prepared to entertain.
The Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) began in 1984, and the Institute today employs over 100 scientists, educators and support staff. If you're interested, SETI has ways you can allow them to use your computer when you're not to join the search.

Answer 4

I don't think it is arrogant.

But contacting another life form out there is unrealistic in the next century. I doubt man-kind can go faster than the speed of light in the next century. Maybe not even possible to attain that speed.

Answer 5

It is arrogant to think your species will survive long enough to make contact with us. Over the centuries, your planet was a curious place to visit once or twice and was not considered very interesting . Sure, your wars showed us how undeveloped you are as a species and your infantile,(in cosmic terms) dependence on god concepts does not bode well for you. We are now showing an interest in you because it is not often that we get to observe a species commit suicide. You are so close to maturing as a sentient species and it will be a shame to see you kill yourselves. There are just not enough of you becoming rational enough to force the issue. You let the least among you determine your fate, so be it.

Answer 6

Binary options let users trade in currency pairs and stocks for various predetermined time-periods, minimal of which is 30 seconds. Executing trades is straightforward. The system uses user-friendly interfaces, which even an 8 years old kid, can operate without having to read any instructions. But winning trades is Not easy.
Binary trading is advertised as the only genuine system that lets users earn preposterous amounts of money in ridiculously short period of time. Advertisers try to implicate as if you can make $350 every 60 seconds; if it was true then binary trading would truly be an astonishing business.
However, does it make any sense? Can every trader make tons of money in binary trading? Who is actually paying all the money or the profit to traders?
The first challenge is finding a trustworthy binary broker; secondly, you need to find a binary trading strategy, which you can use to make profits consistently. Without an effective trading strategy, there is no way you can make money in this business.

It's probably the best way to learn how to win with binary option

Answer 7

No, not arrogant, just a little bit too optimistic. Before we can make contact, we have to able to overcome the threshold of speed of light. As long as we can't do that, we will naver make contact to any other lifeform in the universe.
From the other side, would another species make contact with us? It's the same, as long as we can't overcome that threshold, we would not be interesting enough for them to get in touch with us. Or even, if unlucky, just become thier "lab-animals".
So to speak, if another species was able to overcome the speed of light, why should they be interested in us, though we aren't developped as far as they are?

Answer 8

Arrogant? No. Realistic? No. Possible? Yes.

Answer 9

No, why would it be?
Technology has made great advances, so scientist estimate that if there are any alien civilizations within close (by cosmic standarts) range, we are likely to make contact with them soon. If there are'nt we are not likely to make contact ever. As it is, it's only an estiment.

Answer 10

I am 100% certain they will contact us within the next 100 years.
