If all goes well — or very incorrect — Earth may receive a message from noncitizen from the Altair solar arrangement as ahead of time as 2015 . Japanese uranologist Hisashi Hirabayashi and Masaki Morimoto sent an email there back in 1983 , which was lost and has just been re - discovered by the latter at the Nishi - Harima Astronomical Observatory . Hirabayashi tell they were intoxicated at the meter , which explains why some of the 13 71 x 71 pixel images are the molecular formula for ethanol , the kanji characters for “ kanpai ! ” ( cheers ! ) , and the English Holy Writ “ toast . ” Check out some of the pictures and encounter drunk alien yourself after the jump .
According to Hirabayahsi , he “ come up with that theme while drinking . The aliens belike wo n’t realise that ( kanpai and toast ) part . ” We can only go for that whoever is looking for life at their radio telescope up there wo n’t be drunk as well , if only to see good inter - terrestrial relations from the starting line . Example :
Obviously , this means : “ Dear mass of Altair , We are organisms who procreate sexually to form fellowship . animation on Earth bug out in the water . ” Kind of shuddery , but good than the option — after five whiskies : “ Hey foreign sheik , here on Earth we are all nudist . Some of us are giants with big tits . Others are giants with midget penises . fish like to suntan on the beach . Turn the page to see us intoxicated . Kanpai ! ”
Whatever materialize with the decoding of this binary substance , at least it gives a slight promise to Mulder - hopeful and tinfoil hatter all over the world , who may see alien inter-group communication in just seven old age . Otherwise , the prospect was quite regretful : US scientists broadcast another content to M13 — the Hercules globular bunch — thinking that get a handsome concentration of stars , it may give us a large possibility of getting an answer back , instead of Elvis singing back “ Return to Sender . ” Unfortunately , they did n’t think that the wait time to get a message back from a major planet in M13 would be a moment too long : a mere 46,000 years .
While Hirabayashi is hopeful that his message was received in 1999 and now a reply is getting back to be received by any Jodie Foster listening out there , he knows that it ’s highly improbable that it would work out . “ I believe in aliens , but they are very difficult to find , ” he says .
If you bring the fact that Altair may not have any planets at all , the chance are extremely slim . Still , he say that they did it because “ it was good enough , ” and he is beaming about it , peculiarly after all the messages he got from schoolchildren everywhere : “ nipper ’s response is the undecomposed matter . ”
What he does n’t bring in is that tiddler are small , talk in foreign gibberish and get dark-green sometimes , so his aliens may have contacted him already . [ SankeiviaPink Tentacle ]
