Life on Other Planets

If extraterrestrials live on other planets, we can't see them. Planets in other solar systems are extremely far away. We
can't see the planets, even with our biggest telescopes. But what if the extraterrestrials want to communicate with us?
What if they are sending messages? This signal would travel through space. After many years, it might reach our solar
system. The signal would be very weak. It would be hidden in the noise from other places in space. We would need
special tools to hear it. Scientists have made a tool for listening.

____ 17. A weak signal would be hard to find in the noise from
