Background

The Wow! signal was a strong narrowband radio signal detected by Ohio State University's Big Ear radio telescope in 1977, originating from the constellation Sagittarius and considered a potential extraterrestrial transmission. Discovered by astronomer Jerry R. Ehman, who was impressed by its intensity and marked it with "Wow!" on the printout, the signal's exact origin remains unexplained despite several hypotheses and attempts to detect it again. It lasted for the 72-second observational window but has not been observed since.
