Three of the most original attempts to make contact with aliens
1. Crop circles
Today the emergence of intricate geometric patterns of flattened on the grass fields is often attributed to the handiwork of aliens, however, initially thought that in this way people will be able to contact "green men": in 1820, the year the German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss, passionate about surveying, I decided that the aliens noticed our messages, they must be clearly visible from a bird's flight, so he offered to cut a large part of the Siberian taiga in the form of a huge triangle and sow his rye.
2. Ad "Doritos"
The advertisement was broadcast with the help of radar in the form of MPEG code, its target audience — residents of a possible dwarf galaxy in the constellation URSA major, which is located at a distance of 42 light years from Earth. It turned out that the video "Doritos" not alone in the universe — the other is also gets into interstellar space, but its signals, "drowning" in space noise. "Doritos" was broadcast on ultrahigh frequency is 500 MHz, so it can get on the blue screens of "little green men" if they certainly exist.
3. Concentrated light
Once the lights faded on the surface of Mars and Venus (probably which was any meteoalarm), French inventor and poet Charles CROs, decided that it was nothing but the light of alien cities. Therefore, in 1867, the year CRO has published "a Review of possible relationships with the planets", and two years later, in 1869-m, proposed to use a parabolic mirror to "collect" the electric light and direct it in the direction of Mars and Venus. Thus, in his opinion, the rays should be blinking (kind of a light Morse code) to the aliens realized that it was a coded message and not just the radiance of any star.
KRO doubt that a small mirror will cope with such a challenge, so turned to the French government with a request to set somewhere in the desert, a huge parabolic reflector. Unfortunately, the application of the inventor rejected, and his poetic dream of reunification with extraterrestrial intelligence never came true.
