The signals seem to be coming from a sun-like star known as HD 164595 The star is 95 light years away and may have undiscovered planets in orbit Scientists say signals may simply be the result of a natural phenomenon One possibility is 'microlensing' in which the star's gravity focuses signals coming from farther away
A spike in radio signals coming from the direction of a sun-like star has excited astronomers.
The signals seem to be originating from a sun-like star known as HD 164595 in the constellation Hercules, around 95 light years away.
Scientists suggest they are likely to be the result of a natural phenomenon, such as 'microlensing', in which the star's gravity strengthens and focus signals from elsewhere.
But astronomers have also asked Seti (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence) to take a closer look at whether they could be a message from ET.

Maybe not contacted. Signaled, perhaps. From what I’ve read of this, the signal is just a spike in strength from a specific star, though granted it’s one that resembles ours pretty closely and has at least one planet orbiting it, which at least makes this more interesting.
So far, no discernible pattern to the signal, and the strength is high enough that only a very advanced civilization could have generated it (Kardashev II; a civilization that has learned to harness the entire output of their home star).

Contacted? We've already been invaded!
To Serve Man
"Apparently benign alien emissaries show mankind how to end the misery
of war, plague and famine. The Kanamits, nine-foot tall aliens, arrive on
Earth with one lofty goal: To Serve Man. They end war, they end famine.
They make the military wonder: what's the catch?"
