Episode The Enigmatic ‘Wow!’ Signal
In this episode we delve into the mysterious story of the ‘Wow!’ signal. In 1977, a strong narrowband radio signal cut through cosmic noise at Ohio State University’s Big Ear Radio Observatory, causing the astronomer who discovered it to circle the data on the print out and scribble a single word, “Wow!” - could this communication have come from somewhere otherworldly?
