Space researchers want to send a coded message to aliens, including illustrations of nude humans.
The proposal,"A Beacon in the Galaxy" , was presented by 11 researchers from a range of institutions, including NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. It was published this week in Arxiv, an open-access repository of scientific papers.It calls for a binary-coded message"developed for transmission to extraterrestrial intelligences in the Milky Way galaxy," and will include scientific concepts including the human form, according to the proposal.
Therefore, the message was coded in the binary language of zeroes and ones used in computing systems.The message includes a time stamp, location stamp, visual representations of the DNA double-helix structure and a hydrogen atom, visual explanations of algebra and other mathematical operations, an illustration of the solar system, a map of the earth, and, of course, a smiling illustration of two human bodies, one male and one female. The pair are waving at the viewer.
