I think it's incredibly arrogant to think we're the only sentient beings around.Why do people think that intelligent life will communicate using the same means as us? Do they even communicate at all? Just because we use the EM spectrum (commonly, radio), doesn't mean that other life will do the same. Hell, we don't even know for certain if other life forms will be carbon-based like we are, much less have the same values and ideas as us. They might not even have technology at all and maybe, just maybe, they don't even give a shit about us.No, other life forms will probably be so vastly different from us that we'll be both utterly terrified and completely overwhelmed if/when we ever encounter them.
