Wow! Signal - 30th Anniversary Report. Introduction The "Wow! " source radio emission entered the receiver of the Big Ear radio telescope at about 11:16 p.m. Eastern Daylight Savings Time on August 15, 1977. Thus, at the time this article is being written it is near the 30th anniversary of the detection of that now famous radio source. What have we learned about that signal over the past 30 years?
