Supposedly, acording the the theories, a signal can go into space, and since
there is nothing to stop that signal once it reaches space, can keep
travelling until it is reflected back off some object in space.
The signal then reenters our atmosphere and can be received.  Weather this
can happen after hours, days, or years is really up to absolute speculation.
Consider the speed of light, and how far that signal can travel in the time
they claim it took to hear the signal back again.
Theoretically possible, probably complete BS.
There are many stories, tails, legends in the radio world that are
unsubstantiated, and open for speculation.  Are there really UFO's from
space? Are there really other dimensions of time and space? It goes into the
same category as those subjects.  Art bell tends to take a completely
unknown and unsubstantiated idea and, because its talked about on
international radio, it suddenly becomes a theory, and then somehow becomes
believable in the minds of the gullable.
Occasionally he has credible professionals which have imperical proof and
scientific backup to their claims, but more often then not, they are blowing
smoke out their....ears.
I don't think their is a term for it other then Terestrial radio bounces or
something....you can think of EME, or moon bounce theory...it is similar but
just out beyond the relm of practicality.
