Social media erupts with memes as scientists discover signature of alien life on a planet 120 light years from Earth .
The planet is 124 light-years from Earth - so it would take us hundreds of thousands to millions of years to reach it with current technology.
Following the announcement, it didn't take long for hilarious memes to pop up across social media.
The star, otherwise known as KIC 8462852 , is located 1,400 light years away.
Recent studies have 'eliminated the possibility of an alien megastructure', and instead suggests that a ring of dust could be causing the strange signals.
Three of the planets have such good conditions, that scientists say life may have already evolved on them.
