Hark! A mystery sign in space (ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter)
A message will soon be received from outer space and you are invited, along with the global community, to decipher it. Does its messenger, the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter, count as extraterrestrial intelligence? Probably not. So, until we hear from aliens themselves, the martian orbiter is playing the role of green man in the ?A Sign in Space? global art project. If we were to receive a signal from space, it would likely not be just scientists who catch it. Today, many individuals, organisations, universities and companies have access to antennas that are pointed skyward. Any message received would be for the whole planet and, just like art, it could be interpreted in countless ways. If we received an extraterrestrial message, how would we interpret it? What would it mean for humankind? Find out more.
