- A mysterious radio source located in a galaxy 500 million light years from Earth is pulsing on a 16-day cycle, like clockwork, according to a new study.

- Astronomers have detected a strange and persistent radio signal from a far-off galaxy that appears to be flashing with surprising regularity, and it is currently the longest-lasting FRB. The clear and periodic pattern of fast radio bursts may originate from a distant neutron star. https://news.mit.edu/2022/astronomers-detect-radio-heartbeat-billions-light-years-earth-0713 41 comments science
- Fast radio bursts could be far-flung magnetars, new evidence suggests. The recent detection of a nearby flaring magnetar (a neutron star so magnetic it would shred your body from a distance of about 1,000 kilometers) looks a lot like short, intense radio pulses seen in distant galaxies. https://astronomy.com/news/2020/05/fast-radio-bursts-could-be-far-flung-magnetars-new-evidence-suggests 20 comments space
- A Canadian-led team of scientists has found the second repeating fast radio burst (FRB) ever recorded. FRBs are short bursts of radio waves coming from far outside our Milky Way galaxy. Scientists believe FRBs emanate from powerful astrophysical phenomena billions of light years away. https://mcgill.ca/newsroom/channels/news/canadas-chime-telescope-detects-second-repeating-fast-radio-burst-292994 4 comments science
