Print Caklatr 14 of 14 apling Learning Map Radio communication has been used on Earth for more than 100 years. Assuming these signals penetrated the atmosphere and were strong enough for detection, what is the likelihood that another planetary system could have received them? o There are numerous planetary systems within 100 ight-years and some may be suitable for intelligent life to exist There are thousands of stars within reach of Earth's radio signals, but detecting any planetary systems in orbit requires much more advanced technology than exists at the present time. O There are very few stars located close enough to Earth to have received these signals. o Thousands of stars are located within the travel distance of the signals, but none of therm contain planetary systems.

Explanation / Answer

Currently there are about 250-330 stars and 150-200 planets within 100 light years from our Solar System. We can also detect planetary systems using Radio signals. So, there are numerous planetary systems within 100 light years and some may be suitable for intelligent life to exist.
