What information will you send to aliens?

In summary: I heard that the real dimension univesrse has is 11-dimensional space. So any type of combination of dimensions occurs in senses of beings, human has 4-dim.I want to hear your opinions and how do you make a meassage if you try to send it.I give them the addresses of people I don't like and then taunt them to take me away.I appreciate your kind regards, then you will be the first one whose address is exposed by aliens.I honestly think that music would be the best form of communication. Same with mathematics. They are both universal languages.

Do you know guys that every satelites have some note that contains

all about the Earth and human? It is to inform our information to aliens.

And many people tried to infrom human's culture such as music and some great pictures

and a lot of languages including English.

And I thought that it would be just wasting time because if the aliens cannot realized them,

I mean If the dimension aliens live and our's are different, all the efforts to communicate

with them would just spend our times and lots of money.

Isnt it?

I want to hear your opinions and how do you make a meassage if you try to send it.

Music is essentially heard everywhere. Flies buzz in the key of F haha

Appreciating music requires specific functions in the brain. Some people are unable to hear music in a normal sense - it just sounds like noise, their brain doesn't recognize pattern or melody or anything else associated with music. So there's no reason to think that alien beings would have a sense of music like our own.

I think mathematics is the best way to communicate, but communication with alien beings could very well be impossible.

Well any attempt at speech is pretty well useless, how will the aliens understand English? Math is likely the best way. Even on Earth some of us think of music differently than others. And what if the aliens are deaf? However even Mathematical communication could well be impossible. Their numeric system could well differ from ours. Videos without sound would possible work, provided the aliens could see.

Not just any maths since we use a numerical system, and all the equations are in English or Greek letters.

Geometry would be a good way. A single image of the Mandelbrot set should catch anyone's attention who knows about mathematics.

Correct, MickeyW! Geometrical representations would be recognized by any advanced civilization - which is why the nuclear fine constant, Ha spectral frequency and various other fundamental constants were geometrically encoded on the pioneer probe. Music was also encoded as it too is very geometrical and not naturally occurring. We also included the location and frequency of various pulsars in the galaxy to enable them to precisely determine out location. That should remove any fears they might harbor of us being a threat. Sort of like adding your credit card and pin number to your facebook profile.

Related to What information will you send to aliens?

1. What information will you send to aliens?

As a scientist, I do not have the authority to send any information to aliens. However, there are ongoing projects and initiatives such as the SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) program that are attempting to send messages into space in hopes of communicating with potential intelligent alien civilizations.

2. What type of information is being sent to aliens?

The type of information being sent to aliens varies, but it typically includes mathematical and scientific concepts that are considered to be universal and understandable by any potential extraterrestrial beings. Some messages also include images and sounds that represent human culture and life on Earth.

3. Is it safe to send information to aliens?

There is no definitive answer to this question as we currently do not have any confirmed knowledge of intelligent alien life. However, many scientists believe that the chances of harm coming from sending messages into space are very low, as it would likely take thousands of years for any potential response to reach us.

4. How will the information be sent to aliens?

The most common method of sending information to aliens is through radio waves. Radio telescopes are used to transmit messages into space in hopes that they will be received by any potential alien civilizations. Some projects have also used spacecrafts to physically carry messages into space.

5. Will aliens understand the information we send?

This is a difficult question to answer as we do not know what level of intelligence or understanding potential alien civilizations may have. However, scientists have attempted to make the messages as universal and understandable as possible by using mathematical and scientific concepts that are considered to be universal and easily decipherable.
