An international collaboration of astronomers, including researchers from the University of Toronto, have detected the brightest Fast Radio Burst (FRB) to date—and have been able to pinpoint its ...

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are among the most puzzling astronomical phenomena. These brief yet intense bursts of radio waves, lasting just milliseconds, originate from deep space. Scientists first ...

A staccato blast of electromagnetic energy has been tracked to an old, dead galaxy for the first time. The discovery supports the idea that there are more ways to produce such flares, called fast ...

ORCs are vast, faint rings of radio energy that surround galaxies and can be detected only in radio wavelengths of the ...

A team of astronomers just discovered FRB 20240304B, a fast radio burst (FRB) from 11 billion years ago. It is the farthest FRB we now know, dating just about 3 billion years after the universe began.

Is anybody out there? We might find out soon. The world's largest radio telescope is now up and running in China, and it's already searching for undiscovered stars and galaxies and listening for signs ...
