  • tresbizarre, on 11/01/2009, -0/+6 Television and radio signals which were once thought to be capable of transmitting information over interstellar distances actually decompose into static within one or two light years. Unless, you know, it's necessary for the plot. (I'm looking at you Carl Sagan!)
  • ashbrown23, on 11/01/2009, -1/+7I read the title as dead celebrities
  • chicagobiff, on 11/01/2009, -0/+4an army of stellar corpses ! o_O
  • Ac1115, on 11/01/2009, -1/+5Heh, from the title I assumed it would be about old television and radio transmissions somehow bouncing back to us after decades.

    But no, it's about neutron stars. I kind of feel stupid :-/
  • dollar0dot02, on 11/01/2009, -0/+3Buried for inaccuracy. Elvis is alive.
  • supersonicjim, on 11/01/2009, -0/+2A forest full of crabs!

  • MacParrot, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1FRANKIE!!!! (swoon!)
  • nowhereelse, on 11/02/2009, -0/+1It's a shame that unfounded speculation constitutes a publishable article these days. There is nothing here but the hand waving and rambling of a couple of puzzled astronomers. This is not even a theory and it certainly hasn't been tested.
  • mizarone, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1Its true, I saw him in a UFO.
  • xero69, on 11/02/2009, -0/+1(points giant radio telescope towards the sky and turns up volume, sounds of static can be heard and then suddenly...)
    HI BILLY MAYS HERE WITH OXYCLEAN!
    (smashes radio telescope into pieces)
  • CptBuck, on 11/01/2009, -0/+1It's rather clear that you didn't read the article.
  • darkshadow039, on 11/01/2009, -0/+0Make BILLY MAYS go away!
  • Iruka, on 11/01/2009, -2/+1Yes mate, I read the article and its quite interesting. I just thought that it was rather timely on its play on words during All Hallows Eve.

    The most compelling thing, I minored in astronomy, the article isn't telling us something we don't already know is it?
  • Iruka, on 11/01/2009, -4/+1Is this suppose to be a joke? LOL! What a load of bollocks! Who is the dumb idiot that submitted this? Dumped!
