On August 15, 1977, for a period of 72 seconds, the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence had its greatest moment. 

A signal was received like none other before or since. 

However, in the over 45 years since the signal was recorded, astronomers have been unable to relocate it or even figure out what it was. 

Learn more about the WOW! Signal, why it was important, and what it could have been, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

As I do every month, I went to the Temple of Jupiter Capitolinus to meet with the Augurs. I met an old priest, and I asked him, “Quo die est felicissimum?”

He looked at a flock of birds that appeared to be flying in a circle. He saw a cloud float past the sun, and he noticed that the sacred chickens had paused in their eating. 

Having read the signs, he turned to me and said, “Primo Saturni in Augusta.”

As getting advice from chickens and clouds can’t possibly be wrong, stay tuned for Questions & Answers: Volume 9 on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

When people from prehistory created the first works of art on the walls of caves, they used the colors that they found around them. Almost all of the early cave art is drawn in black or dark red. 

As time progressed, humans figured out how to create more colors and they began using them in more and different ways.

However, some colors were very difficult to create and those who could do it became fabulously rich.

Learn more about colors in the ancient world and how early humans developed dyes and paints in this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Today's episode is all about music history. First, musicologists Kerry O'Brien and William Robin tell NPR's Noah Caldwell about their new book, On Minimalism, and how the genre was born out of 1960s counterculture and went on to influence artists like The Who and Alice Coltrane. Then, Lesa Cline-Ransome and James E. Ransome tell NPR's Samantha Balaban about their new picture book, The Story of the Saxophone, which chronicles the instrument's journey to becoming one of jazz's most important players.

Located at the narrowest point in the Strait of Malacca, one of the most strategically important points on Earth is the nation of Singapore.

Singapore is unlike most other countries in the world for a host of reasons, including how it was created and the fact that it is one of the few remaining city-states. 

Since its founding as an independent country, they have experienced one of the greatest economic success stories in history and a host of problems that are unique to the country.

Learn more about Singapore and its unique history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
