... radio astronomers working at the Jodrell Bank Observatory of the University of Manchester reported an unknown object in M82. The object has started sending out radio waves, and the emission does not look like anything seen anywhere in the universe.

Maybe it's something like from Niven/Pournelle 'The Mote in God's Eye' where a civilisation used a solar sail ship powered by a terawatt laser from the planet surface - or an even more powerful laser in solar orbit.

@ Fred K. The Moties are coming, the Moties are coming to fix all our ills, especially the Teabaggers David.

Question the article give 2 dates, fiest 2010 then 2009 when this was 1st discovered. Which is it? If the writer got that wrong, what else did he screw up?

Thanks. Very interesting. Don't think the "super-massive black hole" idea floats too well, once again there would be X-rays, and there aren't. As the pointy-eared one would say, "Fascinating".

Well, there's not too much intelligent life here, so any communication would be a big waste of their time, if it's ET'S.
