Repeated Radio Signals From Galaxy 1.5 Billion Light Years Away Discovered: Scientists

CHIME, a radio telescope, was designed and built by scientists at the University of British Columbia, McGill University, the University of Toronto, the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, and the National Research Council of Canada. UBC

Scientists have said that they have observed blasts of radio signals coming from deep in space.

Researchers at the University of British Columbia in Canada said they’ve discovered the second so-called “repeating fast radio burst” (FRB) ever recorded, according to a news release published Jan. 9. The latest discovery brings scientists a step closer to figuring out where the pulses come from.
