We use SEtI to scan the electromagnetic spectrum for radio waves! but wahat is the a possibilty that other lifeforms may have invented the radio? Now assuming that the rate of technological, spiritual, and cultural advancements differ wildly between humans here on Earth. Could this mean other lifeforms simply skipped that need for Radio (especially if they communicate telepathically, or as a collective hive mind). Lets say they these lifeforms are billions of year more advanced- surely the atomic exlposion would signal to any alien civilization- that the kids have found the weapons cupboard! Surely this would have been felt across the whole Universe, and alerted any lifeform out there to our technological advancement? Surely we are not ready to be cosmic grown ups if we still kill eachother over what we believe happens to us when we die!
