    Today in astrobiology I'm talking about ways that we have purposely tried to talk to aliens. Some great resources I'm going to share with my class:

      Arecibo Message
      In 1974, the most powerful broadcast ever deliberately beamed into space was made from Puerto Rico. The broadcast formed part of the ceremonies held to mark a major upgrade to the Arecibo Radio Telescope.

      @davesdogmaggie @sundogplanets dang I got here too late, and the one I found was (weirdly) FLV!

      Gonna have to watch this with my kids tonight. We watched the one where he went to an all-night diner in NYC and it was mind-blowing.

      (I went into astronomy because of the book Contact, but I might save that one for a while.)

      But what I'd really like to find is the Reading Rainbow episode that COMPLETELY BLEW MY MIND and made me an astronomer: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0683450/

      LeVar Burton talks about how this broadcast will go out to the stars, and directly addresses aliens, talking about all the neat things on our planet, and how we've imagined aliens in movies, and there's a visit to Arecibo.

      (I watched it on a VHS in my parent's pack-rat collection a few years ago, but it would be great to find a digital version...)

      When I mentioned this in class today, only 2 of my students had even heard of Reading Rainbow. I almost crumbled into dust right there in the middle of my lecture.
