The code 6EQUJ5 indicates a radio signal detected in 1977 at the
Big Ear Radio

This is a momentous day.
Not only did I get to see a lunar eclipse, but I got to watch the Boston
Red Sox win the World Series.

If someone had told me back in 1986 that such a day would come, with
both eclipse and World Series victory, I wouldn't have believed it. :)

Glass breakthrough
11 August 2004
Scientists in the US have developed a novel technique to make bulk

colleagues at 3M in Minnesota used a flame-spray technique to alloy
alumina (aluminium oxide) with rare-earth metal
impressive.
I think the image scale is 286 kilometers (178 miles) per pixel
sentence did it for me.
If you have the space and time to do so, try downloading the 3MB TIFF
version and zooming in on the rings . . .

Indeed, whenever you zoom in there appear to be even more rings
