Astronomers Think Aliens Will Reply To A 40-Year Old Message TODAY, Apparently Have No Idea Aliens Are Already Here On Earth

[Source] - Astronomers are anxiously waiting to see if today will be the day humanity finds out if we have any intelligent neighbors in the cosmos — four decades after sending a message out into the universe.

The message contained 13 drawings depicting the history of life on Earth through the stages of evolution.

It was then transcribed into radio waves and beamed out into space by astronomers at Stanford University on Aug. 15, 1983, with the intention of making contact with intelligent alien life in the future.

Today, scientists in Japan will start scanning the sky for a reply, according to the Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun.

Altair — the 12th brightest star in the night sky, found in the Aquila constellation 16.7 light-years away from our pale blue dot — could be the first area of the observable universe to send back a responding message as early as 9 a.m. (EST) today, the outlet reported.

Here we go with the aliens again, this time being hoping to get a message. Can I call us desperate? Because we seem desperate here. I'm very much in the belief aliens are real and I don't trust those fuckers if we're being honest, but waiting 40 years for a reply and having it all timed out seems a little obnoxious from these astronomers. Not to mention the 13 drawings are completely outdated. We're talking 40 years have gone by, there's for sure no pictures of OnlyFans, social media, streaming services, anything cool. How are we supposed to seduce aliens into a reply back with drawings that old? 

Not to mention, how about this out if shit doesn't work? 

Scientists are prepared to wait longer if no answers are found today, and the mission is far from being considered a failure if no replies are detected during the initial search.

Oh it might not happen? Ya think? We've been hunting aliens forever it seems. I don't know why. We know they are real. We know they've been here. I don't think we need to start up communications with them, especially before football season gets here. Do this shit back in late June when there's nothing on TV. 

Again, if the aliens are going to respond they need to make it cool. Don't just send a hi response back. Hit us with something clever. Talk about sports. Start debating whether or not Joe Flacco is elite, you know, normal shit. We got enough weirdos running around this world, can't add weird aliens. Plus, can't these astronomers just lie? We don't know how aliens communicate, they could make something up and look like geniuses. Pretty sure we all believe in aliens, so this just seems unnecessary at this point.
