SUBJ: Mystery Signals Beam From Space

A report from the annual meeting of the American Astronomical
Society. Over the past fourteen months, a radio telescope in
Puerto Rico has analyzed over 30 billion signals, as it kept
its 1,000-foot metallic ear cocked for messages wafting in
from out space. Of this large number, only 164 signals cannot
be explained either in terms of natural phenomena or human
causes. Since some of these 164 signal sources are fixed in
the same locations in the sky, they just might mean that
"something" is trying to get our attention, or the attention
of "something else" more intelligent than ourselves!
