    And Lorimer says he has to mention it: "There's even been discussions in the literature about signatures from extraterrestrial civilizations."


    It may be quite a while before we get any definitive answers, though. The two radio telescopes that detected the waves suffer from tunnel vision, which means that since our view is so limited, any FRBs we find in the future will largely be thanks to luck. But as Cornell astronomer James Cordes also said to NPR, "The nice things about this in the current stage is that we really don't know what these bursts are caused by. And so the sky's the limit in some respects."
