if that is trully a signal of a alien race this will be a huge news

Be very cool if its a real signal.. It probably wont be though, been things like this before, end up being bounced singles from earth or man made objects out in space

Alas, this story is misleading. According to Dan Werthimer, who heads up the UC Berkeley SERENDIP SETI project, this is a case of a reporter failing to understand the workings of their search. He says that misquotes and statements taken out of context give the impression that his team is exceptionally impressed with one of the many candidate signals, SHGb02+14a, uncovered using the popular SETI@home software. They are not.

too bad

Of coarse it's fake, or atleast it will be once the men in suits turn the story around.

Aliens don't exist, the men in suits say so.

MY GOD ALIENS ARE GOING TO ABDUCT ME AND RAPE ME IN THE ASS!!!!! HYSTERIA!!!

Seriously, who would react like that? Why is there a general feeling that the knowledge of intelligent life elsewhere would cause panic and mayhem? It would be great if it was true, that's one more step to wild, crazy inter-species sex-fests. But if they look like giant ants with mucus pouring off their bodies and thousands of eyes, i probably wouldn't take part in such events.

A simple signal doesnt impress me.. until im abducted by some green martians, i wont believe aliens exist.
