Why do we think we would be able to decode a message deliberately sent to us by an alien civilization? Group of answer choices   The message will probably be in video format, allowing us to watch it even without knowing the alien language.   We can assume that aliens will also have 10 fingers and 10 toes and therefore that they can send a message that relies on this fact.   They undoubtedly have already received our television broadcasts and would therefore be likely to send the message in English.   The aliens presumably know the same laws of mathematics and physics as we do and therefore could develop a simple code based on these laws.
