Commenter Celeste is skeptical and stated this:

I think it was some kind of malfunction between our equipment, but it’s possible something is out that’s that we don’t know about.

Commenter “SF” had this reply:

It wasn’t. Any malfunction and human cause is ruled out by the experiment and equipment itself. It was setup to do just this. Every possible error was ruled out and every piece of information confirm that it’s genuine, even that it came from space, at least a lunar distance away. What’s left now is whether you trust data or soothing make belief. We’ll never have something as good as this again, signals are decoded in secrecy now, signals meant for us. We have actively to look for contact/alien life, on a planet filled with evidence of it. A clear sign of secrecy / cover-up. Watch the SETI mockumentary, it explain everything between the lines.

What do you think?  Is this just a random fluke or indeed was this a brief yet insightful detection that should continue to be studied?  We should have more info as the S.E.T.I. program with its new funding starts up.
