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.

OK, this article was probably posted for its comedy value, but just in case...
Broadcast radio is just about 95 years old (on Earth), so for the E.T.s to respond would take (at the earliest) about 190 years round trip (95 more years from now). So, they wouldn’t have even known we’re here when they replied.

Those last two lines were one of the worst parts of the movie as they were not in the book and completely distort the indifference that was part of Clarke’s original work.

If we answer right away, they’ll get our answer in 95 years...if they remember sending the message.

That is where message ended.
