"Beware the bearers of FALSE gifts & their BROKEN PROMISES. Much PAIN but still time. BELIEVE. There is GOOD out there.We OPpose DECEPTION. Conduit CLOSING (BELL SOUND)"
[Carl] Sagan and Frank Drake stepped it up even further in 1974, with the Arecibo Message, a coded transmission that was broadcast into space at the Grand Re-Opening of the Arecibo Observatory. The Message was more Drake’s baby this time, and it marked an even more sophisticated (and interesting) approach to ET communication.
The message was aimed at the M13 cluster, so it will be around 50,000 years before we hear back from any ETs out there. (Unless they’re already here, and they intercepted the message earlier. That is always a possibility, at least.) The message was transmitted as a binary code, which begins with instructions on the base 10 number system, which would hopefully enable an ET to decode the actual Message. What was the Message itself? Sagan summed it up rather nicely:
The decoded message forms a kind of pictogram that says something like this: “Here is how we count from one to ten. Here are five atoms that we think are interesting or important: hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and phosphorus. Here are some ways to put these atoms together that we think interesting or important - the molecules thymine, adenine, guanine and cytosine, and a chain composed of alternating sugars and phosphates. These molecular building blocks are put together to form a long molecule of DNA comprising about four billion links in the chain. The molecule is a double helix. In some way this molecule is important for the clumsy looking creature at the center of the message. That creature is 14 radio wavelengths or 5 feet 9.5 inches tall. There are about four billion of these creatures on the third plant from our star. There are nine planets altogether, four big ones toward the outside and one little one at the extremity. This message is brought to you courtesy of a radio telescope 2,430 wavelengths or 1,004 feet in diameter. Yours truly.” Source: http://www.brainsturbator.com/articles/crash_course_on_crop_circles_part_three/
"Dr. Sagan and his associates assembled 115 images and a variety of natural sounds, such as those made by surf, wind and thunder, birds, whales, and other animals. To this they added musical selections from different cultures and eras, and spoken greetings from Earth-people in fifty-five languages, and printed messages from President Carter and U.N. Secretary General Waldheim. Each record is encased in a protective aluminum jacket, together with a cartridge and a needle. Instructions, in symbolic language, explain the origin of the spacecraft and indicate how the record is to be played. The 115 images are encoded in analog form. The remainder of the record is in audio, designed to be played at 16-2/3 revolutions per minute. It contains the spoken greetings, beginning with Akkadian, which was spoken in Sumer about six thousand years ago, and ending with Wu, a modern Chinese dialect. Following the section on the sounds of Earth, there is an eclectic 90-minute selection of music, including both Eastern and Western classics and a variety of ethnic music."

fun fact... technically impossible for us to have an alien response. light doesn't travel fast enough for us to get a reply in 2011 let alone 2001. Also, the galaxy it was aimed at will have moved away from the position it was in when the message was aimed at it so unless the message crossed paths with another galaxy (which is extremely unlikely) then the crop imprints are fake
