We're Again Receiving a Strange Radio Signal From a Distant Galaxy
Ғылым және технология
Astronomers have detected a weird heart-shaped radio signal from space. It's a fast radio burst (FRB) whose origin is one of the biggest unsolved problems in astronomy. The signal is unusually long: about 3 seconds, and has bursts of high-intensity radiation every 0.2 milliseconds. The 17th episode of the Sunday Discovery Series explains this discovery and the mystery of the Fast Radio Bursts.

Yes we live in exciting times and not just about other life forms but just the discoveries, incredible. Talk about good technological advancements. I remember as a child when they first started introducing colour TV. To demonstrate what it was going to be like they honed in on a sign. They then flashed it on and off that caused your eyes to see colour. Funny the first colour image that they actually presented was the end of the evening test pattern which stayed on for several minutes at the end of each days viewing, no 24 hour TV then. I can remember sitting up till late waiting to see it and as a kid it just blew your mind. Can you young people imagine that. Now think about my generation growing up and watching each new development as it unfolds. Sputnik, Apollo 11, first picture of the sun, Andromeda, Hubble, all of it just amazing. Good time to grow up in the world of astronomy.

So how many millions of dollars did they spend figuring it out that it was a microwave oven?
....and the background music is really good, too.👍
I love how so many people want to believe these are deliberate, extraterrestrial communications. They're not. It's just noise. Radiation spikes, gamma fluctuations, rhythm of the cosmos, atmospheric interference causing anamolous radio input/ output, human interference causing ionic discrepencies in the atmosphere and modulating the AM bands. Solar wind activity, weapons testing, scrambled, encoded data in the waterfall, the billions of celluar telephone frequencies and wireless internet traffic in the skies every night and day... so many things. The fractals don't advocate for intelligent, deliberate communication from a sentient messenger in the heavens.
2:38 Aaaand this is why I either wait for the microwave to finish or hit cancel before opening the door. Because **I** don’t want to get blasted by microwaves. I actually noticed this because I got interferance on my cellphone when someone did this. I actually convinced my coworkers to hit cancel by pointing it out.
Perhaps a pulsar that had virtually all of it's spin nullified via a close call with an event horizon or some other supernova remnant? Yeah I just finished nightshift and the 8 am herb is kicking in. My question is this...if a pulsar lost a big chunk of it's rpm, would it shed mass and if so, continually like clockwork? I cant picture an event of that magnitude happening to a pulsar without it protesting fiercely. Very energetic, 3 second long bursts on a rotational axis that is different and much slower than it's original supernova rpm.
Is it just me or is anyone else sad to know that there was life out there - sending a message across the universe and we’ve only just received the message NOW. :(

If we are receiving a signal it is millions of years old and my no longer even exist
🤨That 3.5 billion light year distance and the time to reach the Earth in the milky way has me very perplexed🤔. That distance being so far, despite the fact it was a neutron star or pulsar.. that distance and the length of time the signal has existed begs many questions. But one of the questions it begs is.. with that distance + that time with the undoubted ( & potential) plethora and myriad of obfuscators.... why wouldn't that signal have been limited to nonexistent after traveling so far, for so long, with so many impediments and types of impediments? It begs the question of if there was a potentiality for those signals to somehow be magnified or even skip ahead: wormholes, gravitational lensing, warping through space-time in order for it to reach such distances unabated for so long... It begs the question did those signals potentially travel faster than the speed of light which gave them the ability to last longer with significant intensity over such distances of time with so many obfuscations between the source and the receptors. 🤔
I have a question. If we communicate with using radio hand held just imagine we are sitting in iss space station and we communicated to another space station is there anything special communication system needed?
that microwave did a little trolling
It’s so difficult to find a site that deals with facts and not simple supposition. Unfortunately most sites that clam to be scientific are works of pure fantasy. I am seriously hoping this site deals in searchable evidence that mere mortal can follow. Thank you.
Mork calling Orsan, come in Orsan😉
Use modulation to impose a cellular automaton on the radio signal of an FRB. Then, at the receiving end (Earth), we initiate the automaton, leading to the recording of strange blocks of digital information. Information about the molecular basis for alien life in the quadrant of the originating galaxy? The encoding of essential information about how to alter and control gravitational effects? Basic information files that explain the essentials of a stable and efficient nuclear fusion device? The list of possibilities goes on ad astra!
So, it seems like our people are on the moon, mars, venus, Jupiter or further afield and have taken microwave ovens with them. It makes sense, as a full, big range oven would be a bit of an overkill for a couple of people; then the wood, coal and charcoal would take some thinking about.

Old transmission from decades ago, circling back around, space is a vacuum and it can hold information to, until certain conditions are right with the magnetic fields that surround our planet, the moon and the suns behavior.

I don’t understand how we keep hearing about these radio signals before they are authenticated. If they follow protocol they can quickly rule them out. They also have software that helps rule out inference. It’s strange they tell us about signal like the one they thought might come from poxima B. It took years to tell us it was interference. If they followed protocol it would have taken a few hours. It doesn’t make sense
