Weird Export to Parquet logs in UDX_EVENTS

I am a bit puzzled by both the appearance and the meaning of these events found in UDX_EVENTS:

clearseedwh=> select * from udx_events limit 1;

any idea what that means and why it looks so weird? Those weird characters are the way they appear in the console.

Here is what I ran

EXPORT TO PARQUET (directory='/data/my_table/') AS SELECT * FROM prod.my_table;

That is on vertica 25
