Fast radio burst: Astronomers spot most distant cosmic phenomenon detected so far in distant galaxy | Science & Tech News
admin
Astronomers have spotted the most distant fast radio burst (FRB) to date in a galaxy so far away that its light took eight billion years to reach Earth. The remote blast of cosmic radio waves, whose source was detected by the European Southern Observatory’s (ESO) Very Large Telescope (VLT), lasted less than a millisecond. It…

Largest cosmic explosion ever spotted by astronomers | Science & Tech News
admin
Astronomers have uncovered the largest cosmic explosion ever witnessed – and it’s lasted more than three years. The explosion, known as AT2021lwx, is believed to have come as a result of a vast cloud of gas – thousands of times bigger than the sun – being sent into a black hole after coming off its…

Cosmic explosion may be brightest ever seen, astronomers say | Science & Tech News
admin
A cosmic explosion that blinded space instruments may be the brightest ever seen, astronomers have said. The blast, which occurred two billion light years from Earth in October, produced a pulse of intense radiation that swept through the solar system, triggering detectors on multiple spacecraft. Scientists said the event was a gamma-ray burst (GRB), known…
