Because the James Webb Tells Us So

A Scientific Proposal


When the James Webb telescope opened up and turned on it showed us here on earth information that most scientists didn’t think existed. Most of the scientific community thought that when they turned it on they’d see some planets less evolved than ours with the rare cosmic fossil floating around. Surprise! Not it. They found planets way more evolved than ours and also planets giving off gases similar to our planet.

 




So, I thought, “Ok, let’s try to reach out to them. Send them a phone.” Then I was met with, “That’ll take millions of years to get all the way out there. It’ll take too much fuel, never get there, too heavy, it’ll cost trillions of dollars, and on and on.” I disagree.

 

We got the James Webb telescope pretty far out there and it didn’t take millions of years. Sure, it’s lighter weight than rockets with humans on them. Ok, let’s go with that. You know what’s even lighter weight than that? A proton split in half.

 

I was reading that a proton was split in half with a laser then transported 15 miles away and when they tickled one of the halves the other one moved in the same motion. They didn’t communicate they just moved at the same time.

 

So here’s my thought: split a proton, then leave 1/2 of the proton in the lab, put the other half of the proton in a stable container that gets launched into space, and have it travel with similar energy as the James Webb telescope did. Then, the destination of the entagled proton is the planet with the similar gases to ours on Earth; so If the proton in the lab moves, an intelligent life out there is moving it.

 

How will this intelligent life know it’s coming? They won’t; you’ll have to attach a bell of sorts, hoping they’ll find it. How will they know what it is when they receive it? That’s for scientists to figure out.

 

How will we know what intelligent life is trying to say? Get the best linguistics people on Earth to try to figure out a language of proton tickling movement with the other planet similar to a Morse Code type of language.

 

Who is going to do it? Not a government—especially not a government that can be held back from transparency due to strong religious affiliations. We should do it. We the people of Earth. We get groups of the greatest scientists together; they could even knock out ideas via Zoom on Saturdays. Then, submit some ideas. Then, the scientific and artist communities can vote on these ideas similar to how SAG votes on who should win their awards. It would be done blindly no one can know the members of each group. Heck, maybe even one of the projects could be an “exquisite corpse” and you don’t know who is sending you 1/4 of the project or something and then you finish it with your expertise. Then every scientist who works on it gets credit. It will be made by the collective brains of humans throughout our time of knowledge on this rock.

 

Who is going to pay for it? We the people of earth. We encourage everyone to donate $50. We will put a donation cap of $500,000 on it that way this will have no master. No billionaire or government to confine us or to cage our minds. No billionaire or government to stop us from reporting the information.

 

If they try to stop us after we’ve made contact, too bad we’re already talking to the aliens. Don’t make us tell them you’re being difficult.

 

Also one last thing ... you scientists take forever sometimes, so here’s your timeline: come up with your ideas within 8 months. Test them in 6 months. Peer review them 3 months. Make everything and launch 9 months. Thank you; you're welcome.
