But Caballero cites that the star has the same temperature

radius and luminosity as our own sun, making it a likely source.

However, this theory does not seem to be widely accepted or even acknowledged by many other astronomers.

I think what's interesting about this theory is that it kind of just says there's a star right there, kind of where the signal came from.

I think it's just that.

Again, it doesn't talk about the signal strength, the intensity, the fact that when we look at that star now, we're not picking up that same level of intensity.

So it's, it's a thin answer, but we, again, oh man, there's so much more.

Hydrogen masers.

Let me break this down for you.

We all know what lasers are.

Light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation.

Or as us kids on the street like to call it, little shiny things that you try to shine in your friend's eyes, right?

You hit a button and a perfectly lined up wavelength of light comes out perfectly narrow.

It doesn't dissipate.

It's not an array.

It's a perfect line.

And so you get a laser point.

There's a thing called a maser.

which is the same thing, but instead of light, visible light, it's microwave.

So picture like a laser pointer, but it's way more powerful and it's made of microwaves.
