When the evidence points to two realities, which will you believe?

Two astronomers have detected a strange, pulsing signal from deep space. Within hours, the US government goes into lockdown, restricting airspace and scrubbing scientific data. Was the signal an intercepted communication revealing alarming plans for an enemy’s military strike? Or has humanity at long last found proof of extraterrestrial life?

Caught between two mind-blowing possibilities, Dr. Veronica Chapel leaves her job as a high school science teacher to search for answers with her old friend Malcolm Feldman, a determined journalist, and Ada Park, a brilliant astronomer. Oh, and it also happens to be Dr. Chapel's one chance to redeem her destroyed scientific reputation, no pressure...

As the group digs deeper, they uncover layers of mystery that challenge their grasp of the universe and their place in it. With time running out and the world hanging in the balance, they must navigate a tangled web of corporate secrets, government interference, and ethical dilemmas on a high-stakes journey to uncover a truth that will upend our understanding of the cosmos—and ourselves.

The Signal is directed, edited, and scored by Mark Henry Phillips.

Plot from almost 40 years old comics book with standard performance. You will enjoy the listening and 5 days later forgot everything.

Good voices that tell a compelling story set at the faultlines of civil responsibility, scientific integrity and very personal goals.
This is a great story with a very threedimensional MC, exploring these topics. Enjoyable and great food for thought.

Very important thought experiment

Ich liebe Verschwörungstheorien und der Twist am Ende kam unerwartet. Sehr empfehlenswert und kurzweilig.

Erzählfluss ist super.

This is just another shallow sf story. We start out with the character of Veronica, who is now a science teacher after she failed in whatever field because she jumped to conclusions about aliens. Her long gone by Ex Malcolm seeks her out so she can help him make sense of some radio signal that came in from apparently outer space. As she's done before she jumps to the conclusion that it's aliens, immedietly proving that she learnt nothing. The basis of that assumption seems to me absolutely laughable, especially considering she next chooses to just vanish from the school she was teaching at. I don't understand if it was by accident or deliberate that throughout the story Malcolm is the only reasonable character. The third wheel in the story is shortly introduced as Ms Park, the informant that leaked The Signal to Malcolm, who brought Veronica to the sensitive meeting without asking the informant first. This is one of many times where we can see a potential major conflict arise, but due to the utter lack of imagination in the writing Ms Park is just fine with it, an she and Veronica almost immediately fuse together to become bestfriends. The rest of the story to the point where I couldn't bear listening anymore continues in a similar fashion where each threat is overcome with minimal difficulty. What really shows on many occasions is that especially Veronica has a certain need to keep saying typically feminist every now and then and it just feels bizarre and unfitting. She is the type of ass who'd just spout nonsense and complain that nobody takes her arguments seriously because she's a woman, except she does ALWAYS jump to fking conclusions. I can only hope that this was deliberate. The Story feels incredibly trite and I can't help but get the impression that it's overproduced. The voice acting is good with a different speaker for each character and lots of sound effects. It does lack a narrator, which is a matter of writing, but I think having one certainly helps stories. It makes them more cohesive, clearer and sets the tone/setting pretty well.
Avoid this story, get something better, like most of Adrian Tchaikovsky
