I was pretty surprised to learn about the number of efforts to send/receive a message from extraterrestial life. The most interesting part of Jill Tarter's interview was when she discussed the post-detection protocol that has been developed in case we can make contact with alien life. Ensuring that we are making contact is the most important step, and ensuring that we can do so in a timely and peaceful manner. I find Area 51 as an enclosure for alien life we have already encountered to be really interesting. Communication with alien life will be quite interesting, but it could be manipulated by other countries as a political ploy for power.

I would have asked her about her thoughts on Area 51 and the potential of us already having made contact with extraterrestrial life in the form of UFOs
