SETI League supporters can now own a piece of history. When the Ohio State University "Big Ear" radio telescope was demolished in January 1998, we salvaged a hundred pieces of its mesh surface. Now you can obtain a handsome plaque honoring one of the world's great radio telescopes, home to the longest running SETI project ever. The half-wavelength square of "Big Ear" mesh was actually illuminated by photons from the famous "Wow!" signal, the most enigmatic of all SETI candidates. All proceeds shared equally between The SETI League, Inc. and the North American AstroPhysical Observatory (NAAPO), longtime operators of the Ohio State University radio telescope.
