Doing the math on the Marine Careful Son I Am This Old For A Reason Shirt square law and distance to nearest stars you will (hopefully) notice that even such “large” output signals coming from a nearby star would be essentially undetectable by the time they got here. At only 4LY (roughly 3.784×10^16 meters) to the nearest star the signal would be attenuated by a factor of 1.4×10^-33. So the original kilowatt becomes less than a thousandth of a billionth of a billionth of a billionth of a watt give or take a few decimal places. Spell that out in your best Carl Sagan voice to get the full effect of how small it really is. If you had a gigantic antenna (or array of antennas) and you were looking in exactly the right place in the sky you *might* be able to pick that will o’ the wisp signal out of the background radiation, but probably not. Now you might argue that our noisy neighbors would be shouting louder with much more powerful transmitters, but why would they? Their TV and commercial traffic would only need to be as loud as ours to reach their own people. And even if they were broadcasting many orders of magnitude “louder” at the origin it wouldn’t make much difference.

The water at the strike site boils into vapor. The electric potential at the Marine Careful Son I Am This Old For A Reason Shirt site (possibly one million volts versus the ground state of the water (one million volts per one professor many years ago; measurements of lightning voltage are sparse)) will cause a voltage drop to remote earth ground (“earth ground” meaning to zero volts). The resistance of the water (less for salt water, more for fresh water) determines how far away the electric field takes to drop to zero. Within a near distance of the strike, the volts per meter will still cause a lethal shock potential. Lightning strikes on earth have caused fatal shocks for persons lying on the earth with one end of the body toward the strike and another end away from the strike because of voltage drops away from the strike, while others who were lying perpendicular to the strike/distance direction were not killed, because in the latter case the voltage drop was much smaller across the distance of the contact with the ground. I have personally seen the after-effects of lightning strikes . One hit a tree in a campground I was in. The lightning hit a tree, traveled down to the ground, and then into the ground. The ground under the tree was raised six inches above the surrounding ground out to the drip line of the tree (the effective range of the roots of the tree). That was because the water in the ground out to that distance boiled into steam and, effectively, exploded.
