A SETI signal?
Have aliens from a distant planet contacted us? Despite the hype from some journalists, the answer is almost certainly no. In a post for the SETI Institute, astronomer Seth Shostak explains what we know about the alleged "signal" from a star system 94 light-years away: "The chance that this is truly a signal from extraterrestrials is not terribly promising, and the discoverers themselves apparently doubt that they’ve found ET. Nonetheless, one should check out all reasonable possibilities, given the importance of the subject."
