Astronomers are anxiously waiting for a reply to radio signals beamed into the cosmos 40 years ago which will prove the existence of extraterrestrial life.
According to a report by the Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun, professors Masaki Morimoto and Hisashi Hirabayashi used an antenna at Stanford University in the US to send a burst of radio signals into the cosmos on August 15, 1983. The message comprised 13 drawings depicting the history of life on Earth, what humans look like and other information.
Now, a team led by Shinya Narusawa at the University of Hyogo are all set to deploy an antenna 64 meters in diameter in Saku, Nagano Prefecture, in the hope of observing radio signals in response to the message sent in 1983.
