The Wow! Signal — Nature Finds a Way 😉 #AreciboWow

I’m truly impressed by the recent developments in AI. It feels like we’re saving years of work and opening possibilities that seemed out of reach not long ago. We’ve been quietly building toward something, and we’re getting very close. More soon. 👀 #AreciboWow

Help us solve the Wow! Signal. OpenAI’s Codex can now solve a time-consuming computational problem that no other AI platform we tested could handle before. We now need more computing power. You can support our research with gift credits or donations. #AreciboWow phl.upr.edu/support

You’re looking at the radio sky as seen by the Big Ear telescope in August 15, 1977. The bright structure near 18 hours in right ascension is the plane of our Galaxy. Keep going between 19 and 20 hours; the short red line to the left is the Wow! Signal. #AreciboWow #RadioAstronomy

#AreciboWow team member Kevin N. Ortiz-Ceballos is the lead scientist of the team that achieved the first direct detection of auroral radio emission from an exoplanet. #RadioAstronomy #Exoplanets

Now we’re digging through decades of astronomical data, searching for clues to the Wow! Signal and other intriguing signals hidden in the archives. Thanks to new AI tools, we’re moving forward much faster. But we need more computing power. Please support the #AreciboWow project. phl.upr.edu/support

Long ago, we detected an unexpected signal from this region. Whatever produced it was something we had never encountered before. #AreciboWow phl.upr.edu/wow
