PrizePix, it's good to be right.

What's also interesting is, again, using that analogy, you're looking at the sky through a straw, and if you manage to keep it fixed, even if the moon passed from you, you'd only see a piece of the moon for a little bit of time, right?

What's interesting is that as it swept through whatever the signal was in the night sky, it formed a bell curve of strength.

so almost like if again looking out your front door people if someone whizzed a flashlight over the people you'd see a light start to emanate you start to see it glow and as soon as the light is dead set on your people it's at its brightest and then as they move the light away from your people obviously the light fades back into nothing again so that's what we're seeing so

Scientists are so interested because it confirms that there's a celestial source, a very strong source emanating from deep space, and we happen to sweep through it and it measured exactly as we would expect it to in a bell curve of signal strength.

I'll break all of that down a little bit more scientifically here in a bit.

But a few days after this signal was detected and recorded, astronomer Jerry R. Emin discovered the abnormality while reviewing the data.

This wasn't something that was seen right away.

Instead, you know, and I have a picture of this gentleman, if you want to take a look, get the man behind the data here.

Ah, look at this gentleman right here with his glasses and everything.

Red Web
Wow! Signal | We Caught a 72-Second Signal From Space, Then It Disappeared

Yes, perfectly out of the 70s.

Red Web
Wow! Signal | We Caught a 72-Second Signal From Space, Then It Disappeared

Yeah.

So he's pouring over the raw data and he's just kind of seeing, OK, is there anything outlandish here?

Red Web
Wow! Signal | We Caught a 72-Second Signal From Space, Then It Disappeared

Da da da da da.

And I'll show you what this what this actually looks like.

If you want to take a look at the next image, you'll see a bunch of ones and twos and a couple other things.
