SETI sagt, es sei möglich, dass es aufgrund von Störungen des Weltraumwetters Funksignale von fortgeschrittenen Außerirdischen verpasst habe

And they had the ringer off.
tldr; SETI want’s more funding
If they are truly advanced life, they would just send a text.
They tried calling, but Dad was using the dial-up and we only have one land line.
What was it Snowden said, that some alien signals might be disguised as background radiation?
Probably those ion storms.
1 missed intergalactic call
Given the vastness of space there is absolutely billions of advanced extraterrestrial civilizations. The problem is time, and the vastness of space making it close to impossible of any one of them receiving signals from another.
„Space is big.“ So, yeah, it’s possible. I could win every lottery in every state for the next twenty years. It would take a lot of capital and work I’m not really willing to put in and I don’t really like the odds. I couldn’t even calculate them. But it’s possible. Even with space weather interference.
New planet, who dis?
I feel like the starlink satellites are making it even worse now
Yeah maybe all of us missed those signals. Why is nonsense like this posted here?
They’ll be the last ones to find alien life. And they’ll probably be pretty embarrassed considering alien life is already here…
Unfortunately, the planet contacting us was called Spam and we deleted it.
Right…or just the general diffusion of radio waves over the vast distances of space resulting in any waves being indistinguishable from the CMB.
„Yeah, weather is definitely the reason why we’re not getting a call right now. Also, the extraterrestrials go to a different planet. I just talked to them last weekend, right before the solar storm. They are excited to meet you all. Its just they are so busy lately. Ill let you know when they are available to meet soon. They did mention they have a vacation to another solar system next week though…“
That’s fine. They will call back if it’s important.
That would be so incredibly unfortunate if that happened. Though I have a feeling it didn’t, so, ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It feels like this is the lead-up to the Hitchhikers Guide interaction:
> „There’s no point in acting surprised about it. All the planning charts and demolition orders have been on display at your local planning department in Alpha Centauri for 50 of your Earth years, so you’ve had plenty of time to lodge any formal complaint and it’s far too late to start making a fuss about it now. … What do you mean you’ve never been to Alpha Centauri? Oh, for heaven’s sake, mankind, it’s only four light years away, you know. I’m sorry, but if you can’t be bothered to take an interest in local affairs, that’s your own lookout. Energize the demolition beams.“
Any sufficiently advanced civilization would know that signals can be missed so they would keep them on a repeating loop for at least a few years just in case someone is listening.

Please be real. I need some good news
Same reason I don’t have my homework.
I don’t get why SETI is so fixated on radio. Especially since we are selfs are slowly heading away from it. I figure most advanced races are using quantum communication or something we don’t even know about yet.
