      Hi Georgie-May,

      If they would be as curious as humans, they probably would 🙂

      Simon: Hello Georgie-May!

      If Aliens love Earths Television shows like, “Big Bang Theory” and Earth Popstars, like “Justin Bieber” then for sure they will love looking at humans from afar:

      Did you know that our tv and radio signals are right now zipping across the Galaxy at the speed of light! But if there are Aliens living on a planet orbiting the star nearest to us (Alpha Centauri)… they are still going to have to wait until 2019 before they can hear the UK top 10 from this week! The galaxy is that big!

      And if any aliens live as far away as 100 light years from Earth, they will only now be receiving the first radio signals from the beginning of the 20th century and will still have to wait another 45years to hear the Beatles! It boggles the mind doesnt it?

      Have you seen the film “Contact”? The start of the film illustrates the point perfectly:

      It’s strange to think that they may be! 🙂
