in a constellation 1800 light years away...
Of all the events that science has detected in the depths of deep space, the famous signal “Wow!” It is one of the most mysterious.
It is a radio wave signal that lasts about 72 seconds captured by the Big Ear Radio Observatory August 15, 1977. Never before has a message like this been detected. And since then, nothing similar has happened.
The person in charge of noticing this signal in the radio telescope was the scientist Jerrt Ehman and when he captured said data He wrote down in his notebook, in addition to the recorded information, the word “Wow! hence its apt name.
However, this does not mean that there is an alien trying to be found. In fact, it is not even known with certainty where it comes from and there is a possibility that this is corresponding to a natural phenomenon; something that would also be excellent news.
So, it is the job of the generations that followed that discovery to try to decipher the origin of this unusual event.
Under this concept and responsibility, a new study has analyzed the data and suggests having found the origin of the signal; a star in the Sagittarius constellation that could meet the conditions to host life as we know it, located 1800 light years away.
Wow Signal, Where did you come from?
It is the question that everyone wants to answer, and it is not for less. The author of the study says: “The signal Wow! It is considered the best radio signal candidate for SETI (search for extraterrestrial intelligence) that we have captured with our telescopes”, according to DW review.
But in addition, it is also logical to think that a possible alien civilization used this element to communicate.
The explanation of the study.
Over the years and different studies, a certain conclusion was reached that the signal came from the Sagittarius constellation or perhaps from some neighboring star clusters. However, working on this territory is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
