Mysterious Radio Signals from Deep Space Reportedly Reached Earth After Eight Billion Years
Astronomers recently detected an extraordinary event – a deep space radio signal that took 8 billion years to reach Earth. The radio burst, named FRB 20220610A, is one of the most powerful and distant signals ever captured. Fast radio bursts (FRBs) like this are brief but incredibly strong, leaving scientists questioning their origins.

Astronomers Reveal Origins Of Universe's Farthest And Most Powerful Fast Radio Burst
By utilizing images captured by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope, scientists followed the path of the FRB and discovered that it didn't originate from a single galaxy but rather from a cluster of at least seven galaxies.

Never-Before-Seen Anomaly Found In Fast Radio Bursts, Say Astronomers
Astronomers think at least some FRBs are generated by a type of neutron star known as a magnetar.

Mysterious Radio Waves Hit Earth After Travelling 8 Billion Years
Astronomers have detected an intense flash of radio waves coming from what looks like a merger of galaxies dating to about 8 billion years ago - the oldest-known instance of a phenomenon called a fast radio burst that continues to defy explanation.

Longest Fast Radio Burst Similar to Heartbeat Pattern Detected Billions of Light-Years Away From Earth
Astronomers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) observed the signal to be up to three seconds long, making it 1,000 times longer than usual FRBs. What appeared more fascinating about the find was the pattern of the radio signals. Researchers noted that the burst emitted in a periodic pattern of a beating heart that repeated every 0...

Strange Repeating Fast Radio Burst (FRB) Originating From Distant Galaxy Detected by Scientists
The detection of a new and strange fast radio burst originating from a galaxy located 3 billion light-years away has left astronomers puzzled. Fast Radio Burst or FRB are bursts of radio waves in space that are milliseconds long. The latest finding has caused the astronomers to speculate if there are two kinds of fast radio bursts.
