The topic of a quantum computer or a quantum communication
device being used to make contact with other intelligent
civilizations has been raised.

Assume for a moment that this can be done, but only through
a primitive quantum device that sees only in infrared and can move
around in its environment independently. It could send messages
about our existence but could not communicate to us about
any replies it received at this time.

One: would you show this AI device a stellar chart of pulsars
and their timing pulses that would point to our precise location?

Two: would you send a map of the local group and its approach toward
the great attractor?

Three: where would be the best source for such stellar maps?

Four: assume that such messages were received by civilizations
billions of years in advanced of ours. Some would be aggressive,
some would be peaceful, some would protect us, some would
exploit us, some would ignore us. One starship from such an
advanced civilization would have us totally at their mercy.
What is your opinion?
