Now THIS is interesting. Have they found alien radio signals or not? Looks like the real deal to me. However, they are not making that claim yet; they're still checking them out and calling them "candidate" signals. Hold your breath...

The folks at SETI asked Zero to give a listen. It was worth a shot.

Holding breath. Very interesting and encouraging. I can’t imagine anything in nature producing such a constant signal.

Signals or just the by-product of some kind of machinery?

These
AREN'T potential signals from another star!!! These are examples of what such a signal might look like!!!
From the article:
We've started searching our Kepler SETI observations and our analyses have generated some of our first candidate signals. Each of the signals below is shown in a pair of plots, one from an observation of Kepler Object of Interest (KOI) 817 and one from an observation of KOI-812. During an observation, we alternated between targets to enable us to rule out signals seen coming from two different places in the sky. If we see a signal coming from multiple positions on the sky, like the ones below, it is very likely to be interference. The signals below are undoubtedly examples of terrestrial radio frequency interference (RFI).

Wouldn’t it be wild if we could begin listening in or watching broadcasts from another civilization across the galaxy! It might be the Ceti Alpha version of “I Love Lucy”.

If you play the second one on your mp3 player, it says, “NObama”, over & over.

Reading the source article, it differs WILDLY in the conclusion, namely, the source article states emphatically that these are all radio interference from earthly sources, not in any way ET in origin. Why the editing for the post?
