One of the possible stars that this could have been sent from has gone supernova in the meantime....its cool to think that maybe it was a one-time SOS call from a race not too much above our technological level (advanced enough to sent it, not advanced enough to move planets). Chances are though, that it was natural noise.

Hopefully "bad aliens" get the signal first and come get us.

Wait a minute.....
Maybe they want a game? So they had WoW back in 77.... They must be more advanced than us?!

I think it was probably just their way of saying "OMG", or "LOL".
maybe that was it. it was really the LOL signal.

If it was an advanced civilization, they would gain nothing from us. Might use us as pets (dibs on being a kitty), or a zoo. We can offer them nothing. Perhaps we could offer to trade universal knowledge and compare data. However, the likely hood that they're even remotely close to us is slim to none and this Wow noise is actually a natural noise..

Yes, but that 'something' could be anything, like a passing beam of a neutron star. It was only detected once, which does seem to lean towards a natural event - if it was an attempt at communication I would have hoped they'd repeat it over a few days/hours etc. Perhaps whatever it was, wasn't for us - maybe we just got lucky and intercepted an alien transmission to a ship in Earth orbit....we'll probably never know.

They have already been talking to us using telepathy for along time. They sound in our minds like humans. Every bit as much as we do. They know we are a young dangerous race and keep thier distance from us. I cannot say I blame them. I would really like it if humans could get over thierselves long enough to realize that we have not been on this planet alone for avery long time. Money has always been the key motivator and more then likely will be forever. Much to my distress. Thanks Broombreaker

Since the human brain lacks the frontal lobe capacity for telepathy within our own species - how is it that a completely different species would be able to achieve this?...bearing in mind that by the same mentality it would be no different to say that you could telepathically communicate with ants, spiders, cats or dogs etc.

To Professor Hawking, Keep asking them questions about the universe. They will answer. Those small people with the very large eyes have been talking to you for along time. They like you. They said so.

Hmm, I seem to recall contributing to a message around the Millennium - which was beamed into space by Heineken
