Space Mystery: Astronomers pick up mysterious radio signal

Space Mystery: Astronomers pick up mysterious radio signal
DOUG: HEY, ASTRONOMERS AT MIT HAVE DISCOVERED SOMETHING THEY CAN바카라 게임 웹사이트T QUITE EXPLAIN. ANTOINETTE: OK, IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S A MYSTERIOUS RADIO SIGNAL PULSING WITH CONSTANT REGULARITY. STAY WITH US. THEY바카라 게임 웹사이트RE CALLED FAST RADIO BURSTS, OR FRB바카라 게임 웹사이트S, AND WERE DETECTED USING A RADIO TELESCOPE IN CANADA CALLED CHIME. SCIENTISTS SAY THEY USUALLY ONLY LAST A FEW MILLI-SECONDS. BUT ONE NEW DISCOVERY IS SO POWERFUL, IT LASTED A FULL THREE SECONDS. IT ALSO EMITS RADIO WAVES IN A SERIES OF PEAKS LIKE THE HEARTBEAT. THAT바카라 게임 웹사이트S RARE. SCIENTISTS THINK IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S CAUSED BY A NEUTRON STAR WHICH ROTATES AND EMITS RADIO WAVES FROM EITHER END, SIMILAR TO A LIGHTHOUSE. >> PREVIOUSLY, WE WERE NOT ABLE TO SEE THESE NEUTRON STARS EMITTING RADIO WAVES FROM OTHER GALAXIES BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT ENERGETIC ENOUGH, THEY ARE NOT LUMINOUS ENOUGH. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WHERE WE MAY HAVE DETECTED A NEUTRON STAR FROM SO FAR AWAY. ANTOINETTE: ASTRONOMERS BELIEVE IT바카라 게임 웹사이트S COMING FROM A GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY. THIS DISCOVERY COULD BE USED TO HELP MEASURE HOW FAST THE UNIVERSE IS EXPANDIN

Space Mystery: Astronomers pick up mysterious radio signal
Astronomers at MIT have discovered something they can't quite explain: A mysterious radio signal pulsing with constant regularity. They're called fast radio bursts, or FRBs, and were detected using a radio telescope in Canada called CHIME. Scientists say they usually only last a few milliseconds. But one new discovery is so powerful, that it lasted a full three seconds. It also emitted radio waves in a series of peaks, like a heartbeat, and that's rare, scientists said. Scientists think the signal is caused by a neutron star, which rotates and emits radio waves from either end, similar to a lighthouse. 바카라 게임 웹사이트Previously, we were not able to see these neutron stars emitting radio waves from other galaxies because they are not energetic enough, they are not luminous enough. This is the first time where we may have detected a neutron star from so far away,바카라 게임 웹사이트 said MIT astronomer Dr. Daniele Michilli. This discovery could be used to help measure how fast the universe is expanding.
