Hmmm...that being the case, maybe it’s a force-field to prevent her returning on her own?? ;>)

“ASKAP J173608.2-32163 is also quite a tricky beast to spot.”

ASKAP J173608.2-32163 needs a name change. As it is, it’s name is itself a tl;dr

Have not read all of the comments, so please pardon me if this has already been brought up.

The posted text mentions the galactic center but never relates how far away it is. Our galaxy, the Milky Way, is estimated to be 100,000-200,000 light years in diameter. Our solar system is located in the inner portion of one of its spiral arms, and our distance from the galactic center is about 24,000-26,000 light years.

The emissions we are now detecting left their source during the middle of Earth’s last great Ice Age. If it’s a message from space (very doubtful), it sure as heck isn’t for us.

The Freepers on this thread did not disappoint.

Yes.

A large rotating mirror ball in a disco with a spotlight on it could be confusing to astronomers. This radio message information could change everything.

The off and on blinking look of flashing used to be thought to be an eclipsing binary star system (distant stars each crossing in front of each other as seen from Earth.)

Good one.

The amount the guy paid for that flashing ad was astronomical.
