www.TalkToAliens.com, the world's first "Intergalactic
Communication System" has announced that it is fully operational,
and is transmitting phone calls from the public into deep space.
The system is online 24 hours a day.
To use the system's "Intergalactic Transmitter", a person simply
dials a phone number (1-900-226-0300) and talks. The phone call is
routed into a transmitter and the person's voice is beamed live
into space via a 10.5-foot parabolic dish antenna.
The call costs $3.99 per minute. The fee helps offset the expenses
of developing, operating, and maintaining the system.
The "Intergalactic Transmitter" was designed by RF engineers with
over 75 years of combined experience in terrestrial and satellite
communications. The transmitter was carefully engineered to be
100-percent compliant with all pertinent FCC "Part 15"
regulations.
The project has been in development for over five years - since
January, 2000.
The transmission signal, itself, is a frequency-modulated carrier
operating at 2.43211 GHz. This frequency was chosen as it is in an
RF band commonly used on earth.
As stated on www.TalkToAliens.com: "If any intergalactic entity is
already 'listening in' on earth happenings, they should be aware of
this portion of the RF spectrum - and give you the best chance of
being heard."
Where, in space, are the messages being sent? According to
www.TalkToAliens.com, the antenna is pointed into the area of space
with the highest density of regional stars and, thus, hopefully
towards planets and other civilizations.
That region is commonly referred to as the "Milky Way" -- the
galaxy in which our own solar system resides. As the sky appears to
turn over the earth, the parabolic antenna sweeps through much of
the Milky Way Galaxy - and its estimated 400 billion stars.
What other services are planned? The www.TalkToAliens.com Web site
indicates that other enhanced services are in development, such as
ways to broadcast typed messages into space - including e-mails and
Instant Messages (IMs).
They are also engineering a system to accept the public's incoming
digital photos and video-camera feeds - and broadcast them into
space.
