Researchers say they are puzzled over the discovery. Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to produce these types of ...

Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to produce these types of signals, according to new research. The source of ...

For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) to the outskirts of an ancient, dead, elliptical galaxy—an unprecedented home for a phenomenon previously associated with ...

The powerful burst was also traced to an unprecedented 130,000 light-years from its associated galaxy’s center, where few other stars exist. Fast radio bursts, strong pulses of energy detected ...
