They're sending a secret message. Only those with the true knowledge can decode it. I've written it below:

B-E-S-U-R-E-T-O-D-R-I-N-K-Y-O-U-R-O-V-A-L-T-I-N-E

If you could read that, you know the secret.

I agree. Maybe they hadn't updated their website yet?--the date of the article was Oct 17, 2006 *shrug*

It's a coded signal telling all remaining Jedi to stay away.

Frank Drake's Project Ozma (see TMSuchman's message 173, and my reply, above) is mentioned:
Astronomers Track the Birth of a Planet
by Amir Alexander
Planetary Society
19 October 2006
Our galactic neighbor, Epsilon Eridani, has long been the target of both scientific and literary speculation. Back in 1960, the star was one of two targets of the very first SETI search – Frank Drake's Project Ozma. A few years later, when Star Trek hit television screens across North America, Epsilon Eridani was designated as the sun of Vulcan, Mr. Spock's home world. Then, in the year 2000, a true planet was detected orbiting Epsilon Eridani – among the first extrasolar planets discovered, and the closest one to Earth.
