RF travels at the same speed as light ! And the whole idea of Photon Star is that it will examine potential data in the optical spectrum.

What is "smart" ? They could be "really dumb", but with a 10 million year head start. Doesn't make them "cleverer"


Suggest you look at the PhotonStar homepage and read the references to things like Fermi's paradox.
