Arecibo space message, crop circle answer?

Perhaps they think that wheat is the intelligent species on Earth.

They're declaring war then?

I would suggest that the aliens didn't visit earth, they just shot their crop sculpting particle accelerator machine from their own planet. Very worrying that they have such technology. What if they decided to ruffle all of our farmlands?

More than that though, the fact that they are replying to a miss print of the Aricibo message is proof positive that they are in possession of sufficient technology to read our books from afar. They're watching us.

The press seemed to think it was a radio telescope when it opened in 1967.

That's pre-Murdoch right? There's nothing to prove they hacked into conversations with alien civilisations?

fundamentally I've still yet to see a crop circle that couldn't have been formed by pranksters with boards and too much time on their hands.

Hey I know that place, ooohh wooo
yanno there's a radioastronomical observatory adjacent to the crop circle site,


Chilbolton observatory is the largest radiotelescope in the UK, maybe the aliens were aiming at that, perhaps you could ask one of the many radioastronomy personnel or their students that frequent the area, if they know any of these mystery physics students of yours

Fair enough. Would you accept astronomy, radio-astronomy or astrophysics students?

This following picture shows the students I'm talking about really exist in the real world, here is a picture of them standing outside the radiotelescope, actually in the crop circle itself, on the morning that the crop circle was first reported, by them to the press, it was awfully lucky that they were there really, they had been staying nearby the previous night, like at the observatory coincidentally, where they are studying radioastronomy stuff,

I have at this time not ascertained if these radioastronomy people who were involved in the discovery knew anything about "the original signal from Arecibo"

I would think it is quite likely that radio astronomers in the UK would have heard of the Arecibo message sent in 1974 during a ceremony to celebrate remodeling of the radio telescope. It wasn't exactly a secret.

BUT
I think I have successfully proven that your mystery physics students do not answer any of the questions, one of the things I know about this which is truly unexplainable is that the observatory has cctv cameras which cover the area, yet when they were examined they were found to be mysteriously wiped clean
woooohhhhh

hehe

Students rarely answer questions, unless it involves beer or sex.
