  The ellipticity of the anisotropy spots of the Cosmic Microwave Background
measured by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) has been studied.
We find an average ellipticity of about 2, confirming with a far larger
statistics similar results found first for the COBE-DMR CMB maps, and then for
the BOOMERanG CMB maps. There are no preferred directions for the obliquity of
the anisotropy spots. The average ellipticity is independent of temperature
threshold and is present on scales both smaller and larger than the horizon at
the last scattering. The measured ellipticity characteristics are consistent
with being the effect of geodesics mixing occurring in an hyperbolic Universe,
and can mark the emergence of CMB ellipticity as a new observable constant
describing the Universe. There is no way of simulating this effect. Therefore
we cannot exclude that the observed behavior of the measured ellipticity can
result from a trivial topology in the popular flat $\Lambda$-CDM model, or from
a non-trivial topology.
