Will It Be a Fascinating Problem to Have?

Some astronomers say we should send out signals to nearby solar systems, e even though we don't know if somebody's there. This could be very dangerous, because it were wi alert the aliens of our presence. But as a philosopher of science and somebody who is desperately curious about the world, are you saying that we shouldn't respond? For example, that we should ignore a message from an alien world? I don't think we should ignore it, but i don’t think we should respond. We should er, instead, infect every effort that we can spare to gather more information about about them.
