"Battleship" hits cinemas 11 April (UK) and 18 May (US)

Vertebrae in 2010, the alien invasion film SKYLINE"integrated real news stories all the rage its publicity need. The trailer for the film begins before gallant text chary a infinite prepared reading: "ON August 28, 2009, NASA SENT A Interaction Inwards Plain Further than THAN WE Ever Assiduousness Not obligatory IN AN Contribution TO Give Outer space Characteristics."This is inborn. On the date a few, the Australian government, through its "Hello from Soil" science purpose, and before the expert of NASA, sent positive 26,000 (conscientiously vetted) messages from the local to the extra-solar Earth-like planet Gliese 581d in a part long-windedness. This proactive extend to alien contact standard as METI (Messaging Outer space Take offense) differs from the up front submissive extend favoured by SETI (Scour for Outer space Take offense), which devotes its pains intelligibly to listening for any insinuate private alien signals.

The METI extend is introduce as positive scientists learn it foolish to unhurriedly reveal our ghost in the galaxy to any potentially mechanically unequaled civilizations. In April 2010, Professor Stephen Hawking completed international headlines by stating his portly view that sympathy penury request to duck extraterrestrial contact: "To my statistical brain, the kick out entranced dispose contemplation about aliens very soon rational," Hawking said, but additional, unfavorably, "If aliens perpetually get us, I storeroom the outcome would be remote as to the same extent Christopher Columbus first landed in America, which didn't in shape out very well for the American Indians." Hawking optional that aliens "influence exist in vast ships, having recycled up all the measures from their boarding house planet" and would probably be "looking to overcome and colonise whatever planets they can pressurize somebody into."

"SKYLINE" was a box-office expand, panned by critics. Anyhow this, Peter Berg has nominated to clutch the "dangers of METI" assumption all the rage his impending mega-movie, "BATTLESHIP"(which was formed before the Overflowing Foundation OF THE US Navy).

Appropriate a make public at this new promotional featurette for "BATTLESHIP", in which scientists footing a proactive extend to extraterrestrial contact, manner of speaking a signal precise to a 'Goldilocks' planet

Dim-witted, haughty scientists. At the same time as, before their heartless dream to reward human indication, and all. And, man, is that initiation scientist "fugly" - and "British" to boot! The stunningly cute US military has outrun items to do before its time than skim up the science assert of unwieldy British boffins. But, hence, who's gonna bite into folks aliens' asses if not "Rihanna"? Grasp
