Alien radio signals detected repeating with a regular 16-day cycle

Astronomers have never before seen fast radio bursts being emitted in such a regular pattern, and still don't know their origin.

Astronomers have detected alien signals - that is, signals from a foreign galaxy - being emitted in an unusually regular 16-day cycle.

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are not in and of themselves unusual - the first was detected in 2007 - but previous observations have shown them to be mostly emitted at random.

While there have been some bursts which repeated, as astronomers discovered previously, they have never been seen repeating in such a steady cycle.

The origin of FRBs hasn't been established yet, although the dominant theories regarding them suggest the signals are produced by rapidly rotating bodies such as neutron stars or black holes.

Researchers studying data from the radio telescope used by the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) found the FRB signals arrived on Earth up to twice an hour for four days before suddenly stopping, only to start up again twelve days later.

Its origin was located within a medium-sized spiral galaxy about 500 million light-years away, making it the closest FRB discovered to date.

Once decoded, the FRBs appear to be saying, “There’s no parking in the red zone. The red zone is for loading and unloading only”

I occasionally hear Spanish music interrupting a particular AM radio band too. Something about Kenneth...

It’s the missing votes from Iowa, being transmitted directly to a special receiver in the trunk of a DNC-owned car.

Yes. There is potentially a completely natural explanation. Some rotating star with a electro-magnetic “geyser” of some kind that faces Earth once every sixteen days.

The entire universe could be collapsing at the speed of light, and we would not know it for hundreds of millions of years.

“Astronomers have detected alien signals - that is, signals from a foreign galaxy - being emitted in an unusually regular 16-day cycle.”

Aliens have their period every 16 days? Or it lasts 16 days?

Either way it’s no wonder somebody wants off the planet.

Or it could be microwave oven doors being opened.
Wiki FRB - see "2010"

I am glad you posted your article since I remember the Australians getting all excited about signals from deep space that turned out to be from a nearby microwave oven when the microwave door was opened before the microwave shut off. - Tom
