I visited that observatory few years ago.<p>Was in Okanagan for cherries and wine and just noticed a bunch of satellite dishes on Google Maps. Drove to check em out - lo and behold it&#x27;s an observatory, with public tours, with one starting in 10 minutes. Had no choice but to go in. Interesting place. Quite a few people walking around with coffee mugs in their hand and looking as spaced out as your average developer deciphering a fresh kernel whoops from last night. Needless to say the atmosphere was spot on :)<p>If you are in a vicinity, it&#x27;s worth a visit.

&gt; Scientists believe FRBs emanate from powerful astrophysical phenomena billions of light years away, but they have yet to determine their origin.<p>Are there any leading theories?

Is it possible that the Wow-signal was an FRB?

Is it basically a phased array antenna? (for relatively low frequencies)
