Mysterious fast radio bursts traced to spiral galaxy arms
CNN
Scientists have traced the locations of multiple mysterious fast radio bursts back to their origins with help from the Hubble Space Telescope. The millisecond-long radio blasts came from the arms of distant spiral galaxies.
The cause of these mysterious millisecond-long radio blasts in space has eluded scientists since the phenomena was discovered in 2007. Given how quick they flare, these bursts, sometimes called FRBs, are very difficult to track and study. Learning more about the origin of these bright, intense radio bursts could help scientists understand what causes them.More Related News
