Researchers working on Breakthrough Listen, a project devoted to the search for alien civilizations, detected the signal in April or May this year using the Parkes radio telescope in Australia. They have since been hard at work deciphering its cause. Though it likely has a mundane explanation, the researchers are intrigued about the signal’s very peculiar nature.
The beam, which has not been spotted again since its detection, appears to have come from Proxima Centauri. The red dwarf sits around 4.2 light-years from Earth and has two known planets orbiting it. Along with an apparent shift in the signal’s frequency, its direction may indicate the presence of a third planet or even hint at the existence of an advanced
