Default Is anyone really out there... maybe!

New SETI contact that is getting some traction.

Though there have been many of these in the past, all but one has been explained. The one that was never explained was only ever seen once and was very possible the real thing. This one is exciting (as the article states) because they have seen it more than three times and it seems to be expected to be seen again. Usually when these are satellite bounces they figure them out within the second occurance.

Unless they just discovered a new natural phenom we may have a SETI at home winner (don't they get a prize?).

I was listening, last night, to an interview with a west coast (US) astronomer that was excited but cautioned that these get explained. He was giddy though with the number of times they have heard it and not explained it.
