Any thoughts as to whether this might be an S.O.S.?
Astronomers have found a #FRB that repeats on a regular cycle. Every 16.35 days, the signal named FRB 180916.J0158+65 follows a similar pattern. For four days, it will spit out a burst or two every hour. Then it falls silent for 12 days. https://buff.ly/2OJiViP @ScienceAlertpic.twitter.com/h8hWbNo3DC

If it is, it's 500 million light years away. Not much of a useful SOS at that point.

FRBs are the Pulsars of this generation. Its really cool to watch the cycle repeat itself (pun intended). When I was a kid Pulsars were the huge mystery, it was great to see scientists detective the mystery over the years and pin them down to neutron stars. Same for Quasars...

and AGN. I feel like fairly soon they'll figure out the FRB mechanism.

Amusing, but unless the aliens have learned to harness the combined energy output of their entire galaxy, it ain't them.
