Well of course it does, otherwise we would have no way of knowing there was
one hydrogen atom in a cubic yard of interstellar space.

Unlike neutrino detectors who's ease of use, economy, and perfect efficiency is well known.

Only a moron would say there is no signal degradation at interstellar distances.
I am not a moron. Speaking of morons, it would be interesting if somebody could
come up with a more moronic way to communicate than neutrinos, well lets see,
gravity waves would be pretty stupid, but perhaps not quite stupid enough. Come on,
somebody out there must have a stupider idea.
