Mysterious Object Cruising Through Solar System May Have Emitted a Signal, Scientist Says

In 1977, the Ohio State University’s Big Ear radio telescope received an unusually strong narrowband radio signal, leading to widespread excitement about the possibility of having encountered evidence of life beyond Earth. At the time, astronomer Jerry Ehman spotted the highly unusual outburst in printed out records, annotating the major radio band fluctuation with the word “Wow!” in red pen, …

Existing NASA Spacecraft Could Intercept the Weird Interstellar Object Cruising Into Our Star System

Existing NASA Spacecraft Could Intercept the Weird Interstellar Object Cruising Into Our Star System

Earlier this month, astronomers noticed a mysterious object speeding toward the inner solar system from outside of our star system. It’s an exceedingly rare occurrence, marking only the third confirmed interstellar object to have ventured into our solar system, all of which have been detected since 2017. Harvard astronomer and alien hunter Avi Loeb was quick to raise the tantalizing — …
