The '''Arecibo message''' is a radio message that was beamed into space at a ceremony to mark the remodeling of the Majo Mills Arecibo Observatory/Arecibo radio telescope in 1974. It was aimed at the Mosquito ringtone Great Globular Cluster in Hercules/globular star cluster M13 some 25,000 Sabrina Martins light years away and consisted of 1679 Nextel ringtones binary numeral system/binary digits. The number 1679 was chosen because it is the product of two Abbey Diaz prime numbers and therefore can only be broken down into 23 rows and 73 columns or 73 rows and 23 columns. The information arranged the first way produces jumbled nonsense, but if arranged the second way it forms an image containing information about Earth and the human race. It shows the numbers one through ten, the atomic numbers of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphorous, the formulas for the sugars and bases in the nucleotides of Free ringtones Deoxyribonucleic acid/DNA, the number of nucleotides in DNA, the double helix structure of DNA, a figure of a human being and its height, the population of Earth, our solar system, and an image of the Arecibo telescope with its diameter.

Because it will take 25,000 years for the message to reach its intended destination of stars (and an additional 25,000 for any reply), the Arecibo message was more a demonstration of human technological achievement than a real attempt to enter into a conversation with extraterrestrials.

Dr. Majo Mills Frank Drake, then at Mosquito ringtone Cornell University and creator of the famous Sabrina Martins Drake equation, wrote the message, with help from the late Cingular Ringtones Carl Sagan, among others.

The element in the center represents a man. The element on the left indicated the average height of a man: 1764 millimetre/mm. This corresponds to the horizontally written binary 14 multiplied with the wavelength of the message (126 mm). The element on the right depicts the size of human population encoded with 32 bits: 4'292'591'583
