It may take 800 years, but SpaceX's Starlink satellite constellation may be the ticket for aliens to finally see us.

, there are now 1,000 Starlink satellites in orbit, and the space company's plan is to have around 12,000 of them in orbit by 2030, with the possibility of some 40,000 down the line. Having this many satellites above us earthlings creates what's being called the first"techno-signature." This techno-signature is what could enable aliens to realize humans live on Earth, allowing us to be visible from deep in space.

So it looks like the Starlink mission will do more than just provide internet for hard-to-reach areas on our planet; it'll also allow other forms of life deep in space to know of our existence. Although, with 800 years ahead of us before this happens, we've got some time to think of ways to greet them.Be the first to read our latest stories, analysis, and trend-spotting on tech from every corner on earth.

Not carnivorous one's, obviously? 😅

You post the most rubbish articles I’ve ever seen goodness me. You make it sound like you’ve just made a groundbreaking discovery only to find out it’s the usual crap. I only follow for the videos you post

If they were interested and I doubt it, they ll be here in thousands of years, nothing to worry about just yet🙂

Finally? We've likely been watched/visited for thousands of years.

in 800 years starlink will be a studebaker at best

800 years is a stupid ass guess

Not a technologically literate take.

Is this a good thing? I’m not certain it is.
