Researchers still have to comb through a fair bit of the data gathered by the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope in West Virginia to see if there might be some sign of alien technology to be found. However, it's not exactly looking promising. Read more... (http://mashable.com/2017/12/14/interstellar-asteroid-probably-not-aliens/)
