Were We Contacted?The Wow! Signal, picked up at the Big Ear radio telescope in 1977 remains unexplained to this day, and represents the best candidate we've ever detected of a signal of intelligent alien origin. Now, Alberto Callabero of the Exoplanets channel has released a new paper, An approximation to determine the source of the WOW! Signal, which surmises possible origins of the Wow! Signal to a sunlike star over 1800 light years away.An approximation to determine the source of the WOW!

Why is Betelgeuse dimming?The supergiant is going to end its life as a supernova. Is the sudden dimming a warning sign? Betelgeuse is a variable red super giant star located in the Orion constellation. Most estimations have it going supernova within the next 100,000 years, but could it be sooner? Dr. Andrea Dupree, associate director of the Center for Astrophysics at the Harvard & Smithsonian institute, joins John Michael Godier to discuss recent observations of Betelgeuse by Hubble.

BLC1 is a candidate SETI radio signal announced in December 2020, spatially coincident with the star Proxima Centauri.BLC1 stands for Breakthrough Listen Candidate 1, as it is the first signal to pass the breakthrough listen projects filters. Dr. Avi Loeb of Harvard’s new book ‘Extraterrestrial: The first sign of intelligent life beyond earth’ releases later this month. Extraterrestrial: The First Sign of Intelligent Life Beyond Earth https://amzn.to/2LiIxoo affiliate linkIn Extraterrestrial, Loeb takes readers inside the thrilling story of the first interstellar visitor to be spotted in our solar system. He outlines his controversial theory and its profound implications: for science, for religion, and for the future of our species and our planet. A mind-bending journey through the furthest reaches of science, space-time, and the human imagination, Extraterrestrial challenges readers to aim for the stars—and to think critically about what’s out there, no matter how strange it seems.ABRAHAM (AVI) LOEB is the Frank B. Baird, Jr., Professor of Science at Harvard University, chair of Harvard’s Department of Astronomy, founding director of Harvard’s Black Hole Initiative, and director of the Institute for Theory and Computation (ITC) within the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. He also chairs the Advisory Committee for the Breakthrough Starshot Initiative, serves as the science theory director for all Initiatives of the Breakthrough Prize Foundation, as well as chair of the Board on Physics and Astronomy of the National Academies. Author of four books and over 700 scientific papers, Loeb is an elected fellow of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences, the American Physical Society, and the International Academy of Astronautics.

What are Odd Radio Circles? Are Odd Radio Circles Wormholes?An Odd radio circle (ORC) is a very large unexplained astronomical object that, at radio wavelengths, is highly circular and brighter along its edges. So far there have been four odd radio circles found. Ray Norris is an astrophysicist and science communicator, based at the CSIRO Australia Telescope National Facility, and Western Sydney University. Prof. Norris conducts research in astrophysics and Aboriginal Astronomy. Recently, his team member, astronomer Anna Kapinska discovered Odd Radio Circles, during a Pilot Survey of the Evolutionary Map of the Universe while using the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP) radio telescope array.Graven Images by Ray P.
