What good is trying to make contact with the middle of the galaxy? Is'nt that 20 thousand light years away? If we send a message in that direction we would have to wait 40 thousand years for a response.

maybe just LISTENING for signals is not enough? We should be SENDING THEM OUT and screw Steven Hawking and his bullcrap "warning" about the dangers of trying to make contact.
