Mysterious Intergalactic Radio Bursts Detected

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Astronomers were on a celestial fishing expedition for pulsing neutron stars and other radio bursts when they found something unexpected in archived sky sweeps conducted by the Parkes radio telescope in New South Wales, Australia.
 
The powerful signal, which lasted for just milliseconds, could have been a fluke, but then the team found three more equally energetic transient flashes all far removed from the galactic plane and coming from different points in the sky.

Analysis later indicated that, unlike most cosmic radio signals that originate in the Milky Way or a nearby neighbor galaxy, these four seem to have come from beyond.
 
Whatever triggered the bursts has come and gone. The signals, detected between February 2011 and January 2012, were one-time events so little follow-up work can be done.
 
What is known is that in just a few milliseconds, each of the signals released about as much energy as the sun emits in 300,000 years.
 
The positions of the newly detected four Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are marked as red asterisks in this map of the entire sky in galactic coordinates. The source of extragalactic radio signals has baffled astronomers. Image released July 4, 2013.
