But with that said, Fredo, I'll see you here next Monday.

And in two Thursdays, enough time to catch up on some sleep and let your guard down for some more spooky stories.

God, these stories are... Oof.

In 1977, an astronomer noted a reading on a radio telescope unlike any he had ever seen before.

He was so amazed by the 72-second signal that he circled the anomaly in red ink, writing simply, WOW.

For decades, astronomers and researchers have tried to replicate or explain this strange reading.

Was this a celestial oddity or a sign from extraterrestrial life?

Today, we're analyzing the WOW signal.

This is Red Web.

Welcome back, Task Force, to another episode of Red Web, the podcast all about unsolved mysteries, true crime, and the unknown.

I am your resident mystery enthusiast, Trevor Collins, and joining me, hearing about this case potentially for the very first time, Alfredo Diaz.

Okay, so we got into a few things that I'm very excited to talk about, but I am blown away you haven't heard of the Wow Signal.

This was something Christian and I, year one we talked about, and we thought, man, this mystery is a little too thin.

It wouldn't be a full episode.

It's something I geek out about a lot because I have a very big interest in space.

It's why I studied aerospace, aeronautics way back in the day.

I've left that life like a decade ago, but I have a lot of little late knowledge on that

But it's why I'm excited to talk about it today because there are so many things to explain here as to why it is so strange and why it is so hard to explain.

Lots of theories, many of which came in recent years.

So I'm glad we kind of didn't cover it until now.
