Astronomers discover faster than usual Fast Radio Bursts

#PureScience

Astronomers have recorded over 1600 Fast Radio Bursts — mysterious, high energy radio pulses coming periodically from a spot in the sky — in under 60 hours. Where these radio signals come from and what causes them is a mystery. ThePrint’s Sandhya Ramesh explains the observations, which pose more questions than answers to our understanding of these high energy phenomena.
