hellofromearth

who:anyone can send a message through hello from earth
what: website sends text into space
when: From Aug. 12 until Aug. 24
where: CANBERRA, Australia
why: people hankering for an out-of-this-world experience can visitwww.HelloFromEarth.net to post messages no longer than 160 characters that will be transmitted to Gliese 581d, the nearest Earth-like planet outside the solar system say likely to support life.
how:An Australian Web site is giving texting an intergalactic touch and allowing users to send short mobile phone-type messages into space.

My take on this article:
i think this is very interesting and if other life forms can receive these messages than that is extremely awesome! i never thought anyone would ever be able to even figure out how they could send messages into space!

HelloFromEarth:
He telleth the number of the stars, He calleth them by their names. Great is our Lord and of great power:his understanding is infinite!-the bible(psalm 147:4-5)

Gliese 581d is the nearest Earth-like planet outside the solar system likely to support life.
