Is it really the existance of Aliens ? if yes then please guide us how they recognise. We have to know them.

Welcome Konark123 to the SAGG forum, I am interested your three questions.
Which I would like to simplify, to the following (with your permission)
"Do Aliens really exist, and how can we recognise and get to know them?"
Here are my quick thoughts.
We cannot know whether Aliens, exist.....until we find them.
And of course we have certainly been looking for them, using a number of interesting methods.
To those Aliens that we think are intelligent and have a civilization as advanced as our own.....we have sent out a number of high powered radio signals, into space, in the hope that those intelligent aliens will answer us, eventually.
So just how are those intelligent fish like Dolphins, swimming in the warm seas of some remote planet, going to reply to us?
How will those tiny mud loving slimey Alien worms go about replying to our radio signals?
Well they cant ever reply can they? They would'nt even recieve our radio signal, since it would be absorbed by the wet mud and ocean waters of that dtstant Planet.
This means that our high powered radio sinals sent into space could'nt possibly be directed to that type of life.
So what type of Alien do we think is out there?
For an Alien to recieve radio signals, it means it would have had to evolved out of the seas, and to have
constructed some sort of recieving antenna, on dry land?
So even if these radio recieving Aliens heard a few whistles of music or snatches of code..... would they percieve
that it was a product of us human aliens? No, of course not.
No I expect any real advanced intelligent Aliens would be just as secretive as ourselves, and just listen for signals?
Prehaps they have got their own Seti listening program, and 'antenna farms' directed at the most promising Star systems.....just as we have?
I said secretive, because listening does not draw attention to ourselves.
If we set up a 'Laser lighthouse' to advertise our presence, we might just regret it one fateful day?
Seth Shostak, the senior astronomer at the Seti Institute said "We have had the Biology of life for 4 billion years, and radio telescopes for 40 years, thats one in a 100 million". If the technological window for Aliens is as short as ours, then we might have to transmit to a 100 million Earth type planets.....before any one hears us.
And thats not even factoring in a reply.
Unfortunately Konark123, you are not going to get your answer within our lifetime.
Prehaps the only definitive proof of intelligent Alien life would be, to actually
see and photograph some Alien structures.
It should be possible to photograph, concrete, or metal buildings, or towers. Prehaps dwellings that gave them protection against violent weather systems?.
By using two or three (nuclear powered digital cameras)capable of skimming around our eight Planets, 3 mini planets (Pluto is one) and 140 (approx) Moons in our own Solar system, at about 20 miles high.
They could send back digital pictures which would enable us to see any Alien structures that might be out there?
They might turn up a few surprises. The high definition pictures would be much cheaper than landing men upon Mars or similar. And be infinitely more interesting in the long term?
