Source of Mysterious Alien Signal Revealed; Not Alien, it is Soviet Military Satellite

Recently, radio astronomers in Russia caught mystery signals that came from a group of stars in the Hercules constellation. The source of these mysterious signals has now been linked to a Soviet military satellite.

Previously it was believed that the mysterious signals came from an advanced alien civilization. The speculations about alien message gave birth to a number of theories that excited UFO and space enthusiasts. The immense power the frequency of the signal made researchers believe that they had received a message from some extra-terrestrial source.

Hopes were raised even further when the Russian Academy of Sciences revealed that they had received a radio signal at 2.7 cm wavelength in a star system in Hercules constellation, called HD164595. This discovery took place back in 2015, according to PerfScience.

However, now the real source of the signal has been identified to be a Soviet military satellite. The scientists analyzed the mystery signals and it was discovered that the source of the signals was terrestrial in origin. The findings were later confirmed by the researchers when they processed the signals.

The Russian scientists were at first amazed by the signals. However, additional scrutiny did confirm that the signals emerged from a military satellite that has not been listed in any catalog of celestial bodies.

Astronomy experts claim that this is not the first time that false reports like this have come up. In fact, the scientists now take a deeper look into everything weird or interesting that they observe in this field to confirm what it really indicates or means. This is considered to be a part of their mission to hunt for extra-terrestrial life and any clues that it leaves in the galaxy.

The team who initially discovered the signals have decided to continuously look for such signals and plausible exoplanets in the galaxy. The team, in fact, welcomes opportunities to collaborate with other experts to quickly analyze and validate the signals from another source and to develop tools to confirm whether humans are really the only intelligent species in the galaxy.
