Russian Astronomers claimed to have detected a strong signal from space actually 95 light years away from a star named HD164595 in the Hercules constellation. The star Contains a planet within it which is the size of Neptune and appears to have the right conditions for supporting life.
Seti(Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence Institute) a private organization, searches the skies for alien life. Seth Shostak, the director for the Center for SETI Research, cautions people to curb their enthusiasm. There are many different possible explanations for what caused the detection.
SETI's Allen Telescope Array, based in northern California is looking for another signal by pointing their radio telescopes in that direction to see if it can pick up a repeat transmission.
