"The signal bore expected hallmarks of potential non-terrestrial and non-solar system origin."
Where can I read about what these "hallmarks" are? The article is very detailed about the interpretations of the signal, but it never explains why the signal itself is really that interesting in the first place, besides its high intensity. What about the signal made it uniquely suited to potentially artificial, extra-terrestrial origins?
