I suspect any signal coming from outside our solar system would be “unusual”.

Is this the ‘Allen-Parsons Project’ that Dr. Evil spoke about?

Um, hate to disagree with the article, but NO, Tabby’s star has not been ruled out as possible alien mega-structure.

Let's do some math. Pioneer 10's weakest detectable signal with very little data came from an 8 watt transmitter feeding a 9 foot parabolic antenna from 8 billion miles away.

16 light years = ~96 trillion miles. This would require a transmit level 12,000 x 12,000 x 8 watts from the same antenna to be barely detectable. That's approximately 1,152,000,000 watts. Sure if they use a 90 foot dish they only need 11,200,000 watts but if they have that much power to waste, why do they need to come here and steal our oceans and use our people for food?

One alien whispering to another: “They spend all their time and energy killing each other in various ways for so many different reasons. We will never have to invade, they will wipe themselves out and leave us their planet!”

I worked on the instrumentation of the Green Bank telescope. They system designed to help this huge dish keep its parabolic shape.

I was there for the day it was turned on. Right before the ceremony (had to listen to Byrd tell us how wonderful he was for over an hour) Well anyway they had found a quasar and played the sound through the PA system. It sounded just like a heartbeat. Not a little but exactly like one. We have a lot to learn.

10 of them say: Don’t send us those transgender things!

The 11th was too garbled to interpret...
