HELLO FROM EARTH - celebrate the International Year of Astronomy


COSMOS magazine, thought it would be a cool way to celebrate National Science Week in Australia - and the International Year of Astronomy - by sending a message to a potentially habitable planet outside the Solar System.

HELLO FROM EARTH is collecting messages that will be transmitted to Gliese 581d, a planet outside our Solar System which may support life.





Will we get an answer? No-one really knows. So why not send a message and find out? (since it will take 20years to get there dont expect a reply untill 2049)
