Without delving too much into the realms of science fiction, one cannot ignore the mysterious event that took place in August 1977; an incident that stunned the most distinguished professors at the time as well as the world when it was announced that we had, indeed made contact with aliens. The ‘WOW!’ signal, which was received through a newly developed radio telescope from Ohio State University, lasted approximately 72 seconds but would captivate the cosmological society for decades to come. So what was the signal and what did it sound like? Was it aliens? And what alternative theories have risen in the aftermath of such an eerie event?
