See it on NASA's siteThis plot shows an anomalous signal detected by a radio telescope involved in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence, or SETI. The bright colors indicate a strong signal over time and across different frequencies. While this particular signal was never confirmed, it represents the kind of data astronomers look for. The SETI League and other groups continue to search for similar signs.
