An enigmatic radio signal from the direction of Proxima Centauri, the Sun’s nearest stellar neighbor, has set the internet ablaze with rumor and speculation. It could turn out to be the real deal — a calling card from another civilization. More likely, it’s much ado about nothing.
The discovery was leaked to the British newspaper The Guardian, which reported the story December 18. Researchers subsequently granted interviews to Scientific American and National Geographic. Since then, however, the discovery team has remained tight-lipped about the signal.
But the information revealed to date is intriguing.

This whole thing is very interesting. They don't mention that any planet belonging to a red dwarf and in the habitability range is close enough to be tidally locked, like our moon, with one side always facing the red dwarf. One side would be blistering hot, the other way below zero. Most water vapor would eventually make its way to the dark side and freeze out, leaving the rest of the planet very arid. Theoretically there would be a temperate ring around the planet in the twilight zone, but that area would have to cope with the lack of water. I suppose a civilization could develop there, the odds would seem to be heavily against it.

Lt Col Charlie Brown - Wouldn't it be funny if there was real intelligence in it and it said: "We are coming to take you over, but you won't know it because we will fit right in to your political environment, but we run a much tighter government than Earth does!" - Premier, Proxima Centauri B
