          The problem is the same whether pioneer or voyager probes. No rant just the question that remains unanswered.

                no. Her "problem" was that she thinks that Sagan and crew did not include enough variety of human culture.

                      Would that include all posters or just those who are inhabiting or residing in the thread?

                        I would agree with you. But I was more of a mind that we shouldnt tell the prospective aliens anything about us, given they are just as likely to want to invade as to be friends.

It's a completely ridiculous concept created by people who were more caught up in science fiction than science fact."

                            There are soooooooooo many factors to take into consideration when assuming that ETs could ever listen to an album. Not least including that our biology is largely adapted to our environment. Assuming, somehow, that ETs even have the biological mechanisms to perceive sonic vibrations through an atmosphere, it will most likely sound completely distorted in whatever atmosphere it's played in. There's a great podcast called Twenty Thousand Hertz that actually delved into this a bit ago where they simulated what certain things would sound like just on planets within our solar system.

                              IF there are aliens, which I doubt, I think the likelihood of the probes being found is quite high...


                              Of course
