narfblat Posted March 12, 2005 Posted March 12, 2005 Christopher Rose at Rutgers University in New Jersey, US, has studied the energy efficiency of beaming radio signals to outer space. He calculated an estimate for New Scientist that, at best, the signal from the phone calls could only be properly received about two light years away. Why does anyone try calling when there is no chance of anybody hearing? It's worse than a cell phone. Can you hear me now? Darn. now? Darn again.
