Default Is there anybody out there??

Astronomer claims to have detected a 'signal' from the area of that recently discovered 'habitible' planet. It is of course highly disputed but makes for a fun 'what if'.

Don't believe it.

I might have if this guy said two years ago he detected a pulse of light from Gliese 581.

Everyone and his brother are going to be jumping on the Gliese 581 bandwagon now, just you watch.

Found on Drudge even so divide by zero to the square root of 3.

There's nothing suspicious about someone reporting a signal being detected.

It's when they DON'T report it that you know they're lying.

That's all part of the plan. To keep you from knowing what you don't know you're not supposed to know. You know?

Im open to life out there in our universe, I mean its so massive with millions of other suns there's bound to be a planet just like ours with some form of life. Its selfish to think we are the only ones in this realm... I mean universe!
