Показать описание
Scientists have discovered the oldest and most energetic fast radio burst (FRB) ever seen, traveling through space for almost 8 billion years to reach Earth. FRBs are mysterious bursts of radio waves that come from distant galaxies and release an enormous amount of energy. This FRB, named FRB 20220610A, had the energy of 30 years of the Sun's output! Scientists believe that FRBs come from highly magnetized neutron stars, but they're not sure exactly what triggers them. FRB 20220610A could help scientists learn more about the early universe and how FRBs form.
