Professor Michael Bohlander, Dr Andreas Anton, and Dr John Elliott through Durham University have created a survey regarding contact with extraterrestrial intelligence.
Invitation to participate in the global online survey
Contact with Extraterrestrial Intelligence
A study of projected perceptions and reactions among the world’s societies
Dear Madam, dear Sir,
We are pleased to invite responses to this survey.
The aim is to find out attitudes from a wide variety of people and cultures across the globe to the questions posed by the idea that humanity might make contact with an extraterrestrial intelligence someday, or may already have made it. We will be asking you for your views on things such as the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI), UAP/UFOs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena/Flying Objects), how you would deal with a contact event, and how humanity should deal with such an event, in the wider sense.
The survey is administered by Professor Michael Bohlander, Chair in Global Law and SETI Policy and Dr Andreas Anton, Research Fellow, both Durham Law School (UK), in cooperation with Dr John Elliott, Honorary Research Fellow in the School of Computer Science at the University of St Andrews.
The survey is available in English, French, German and Spanish, and can be accessed at these links, where you will also find the information about anonymity, data protection etc.
