My thoughts are that "First contact" will happen once we are able to achieve interstellar travel.
Or maybe we're the most advanced. First contact will happen when we land on a primitive world where the people shite in their hands and smear it on their own faces and the space progressives will start shuttling them to earth and handing them EBT cards.

Could NASA possibly make those symbols any more abstract?

Why would we assume that aliens would know what uranium is?
We're not assuming anything. We're using the best thing we have.
None of this is all that difficult to understand.

Would time dilation affect any of this?
Not unless the lifeform reading Vger had travelled close to light speed for a bit or spent time near a black hole. Vger is moving at 10 miles/sec, though that's not going to dilate time any appreciable amount, relatively speaking.

If the current trend continues, this does seem to be more than plausible.
