Intelligent life? How refreshing, not much of that here in the blue part of Ohio.

I bet it is Mr. Mxyzptlk from the 5th dimension - he was always such a trickster.

"Caballero found what appears to fit the bill—a star (2MASS 19281982-2640123) that is very nearly a mirror image of the sun—and is located in the part of the sky where the Wow! signal originated. He notes that there are other possible candidates in the area"

Somehow, I'm not impressed. There are untold billions of exoplanets we have NOT found. 2MASS 19281982-2640123 is simply one of "other possible candidates in the area" of those we HAVE seen. There are undoubtedly numerous more that we HAVEN'T seen. Simply naming one "in the area" is hardly proof that the source of the signal is intelligent life.

It was the coffee maker near the equipment that was the source....

I thought they decided it was caused by a badly shielded microwave oven.

The vast majority at the time considered it a dark satellite. Nothing since that time has changed.

[Kevmo]

I remain doubtful. This guy is grasping at straws.
