Scientists Orchestrate Mock Alien Transmission to Test Global Response

A group of scientists will simulate the reception of an extraterrestrial radio signal by transmitting an encoded message from Mars to Earth.
Three radio telescopes will receive the message, which will then be made public for decoding and interpretation.
The goal of the experiment is to prepare humanity for the possibility of contact with an intelligent alien civilization.
The message was designed by an interdisciplinary team of space scientists, artists and SETI researchers.
The public is invited to help decode the message by submitting ideas and interpretations.
