Let me guess: they've already discovered intelligent alien life and they are conservative....

I guess it depends upon how much natural radio noise will drown out “I Love Lucy” broadcasts from the biggest possible broadcaster for all occupied regions of space within a 60-70 ly radius. Given that the current count of potentially intelligent alien lifeforms out there is zip, asteroid collisions, nearby supernovas, and global warming is more worth worrying about. Not that I think any of that crap is worth worrying about.

"Given the consequences of contact may not be what we initially hoped for, then we need governments and the UN to get involved in any discussions."

We're doomed.

Govt? UN? To get involved?

Ain’t none O’those in govt or the UN.

Well heck... If they are so advanced that they are space travelers, we don’t have a chance anyway. Just have to hope they are veggies...

We will have to figure out their intentions when we meet any aliens. There are more then enough unfriendly humans to worry about currently.

Until we learn to communicate with honey bees and ants and termites, we need not worry about communicating with ET
