The SETI Institute has inspired all of us for over two decades," said Eric Knight, leader of the TalkToAliens.com organization. Our space-transmission system is robust, and we have the technology and the broadcast bandwidth available for special projects. We thought this would be a great way to give back to the space community."

www.TalkToAliens.com receives 5,000 Web visitors per day, from nearly 50 countries around the globe. Messages are transmitted into space via the organizations custom-developed transmission system, designed by RF and broadcast engineers with over 75 years of experience in terrestrial and satellite communications.

The project has been in development for over five years (since January 2000), and encompasses a significant body of unique technology and Intellectual Property.

The transmitters frequency, 2.43211 GHz, was chosen as it is in an RF band commonly used on earth. According to 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 provide the best chance of message reception.

Where, in space, are the messages being sent? The systems parabolic dish antenna is pointed into the Milky Way" -- the area of space with the highest density of regional stars and, thus, hopefully towards planets and other civilizations. The Milky Way is the galaxy in which our own solar system resides. As the sky appears to turn over the earth, the antenna sweeps through much of the Milky Ways estimated 400 billion stars.
