Unfortunately this isn't true, because science cannot refute solipcism. The best science can hope to accomplish is to develop accurate models about what we observe. That has nothing to do with any "objective truth" that may or may not exist.
Pardon me while I add Solipsism to the ever-expanding list of those things that are formally irrefutable but nonetheless worthy of ridicule. It is a sterile concept.

If that signature is of finite length, then it's already there. Just like all other numeric sequences of finite length - they all exist in pi. Or any other irrational number's decimal expansion.
I think I covered that: For it to be recognised as an intentional signiature it would have to be
unambiguous. A coherent representation of familiar information could be made to stand out 'by a mile' by using a probabalistic approach.
