It's been almost 50 years (today is the 49th anniversary) since the WOW! signal! A very strong, narrowband radio signal that originated from deep space and lasted for 72s. The signal has never recurred, and we still don't know what caused it. 📸 Big Ear Radio Observatory/NAAPO 🔭📡

Paper Day! The first first-author paper from Vojtech, a PhD student in Prague who's working on the Widefield Arecibo Virgo Extragalactic Survey with Rhys and me. Vojtech was out here in Socorro earlier this summer working on VLA follow-up. #extragalactic #radioastronomy arxiv.org/abs/2608.13411
