send back the same "wow" signal to the direction it came from , simple QSL.

wow

The signals have never come back tho, if it was genuine you'd think you'd be able to hear it again at some other time and if that isnt possble for what ever reason it demonstrates intelligence can be picked up so I would again expect to hear some thing again. Maybe its to early to be sure but it doesnt look like its going to be repeated. We still need to develop more ways of recieving different stuff. Thanks for posting the video.

@DarkKnightBob1o1 Aren't pulsars technically rotating by definition?
Ah, I'm just being pedantic. I know what you mean, even if I can't quite describe it.
It's still interesting to think about, whatever the source may be.

Remember regardless of the odds being able to see pulsars is a reality.
-
@DarkKnightBob1o1 that should be the ad hoc stats are 100% that it did happen if its identified as a natural source.

I never been to SETIcon
Just know what Iearnt at uni.

@ConsilienceTeacher depends on how you judge the stats. I mean the odds are 100% if that's what it was
I don't know the exact odds but ...
Also it's strange that no-one relates the fact that we have detected pulsars 'bleeping' our planet before along with a whole bunch of other things such as gamma ray bursts which fit the profile extremely well and are relatively frequent.
Again I don't have the data required to correlate but the odds seem pretty damn high.
It could just be a rotating pulsar that happened to skim our planet for a breif period

@DarkKnightBob1o1 That's more or less what I suspect though it still represents an event of astronomical odds (forgive me) that we be in the path.
Did this come up at SETI Con?
