Radio Astronomers could be close to unravelling one of the greatest mysteries of Space of all time...This year the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) Radio Telescope, detected 8 new repeating Radio Signals known as "Fast Radio Bursts"(FRB) lasting only milliseconds.....I believe the Radio Telescope was focusing upon the Resonant Frequency of Hydrogen, being 1.42 Ghz or 21 centimeters....The source of the Burst emissions is still unclear, but scientists are particularly fascinated by "Repeaters"...
Repeaters where a single Radio pulse repeats itself, were known since the very first Fast Radio Burst (FRB) was found in 2007...Theories of their origin range from highly magnetised Neutron Stars blasted by gas streams from a nearby Super-Massive-Black Hole, to a "Signature of Technology from Advanced Civilisations"!!...
Fast Radio Bursts are best loved by people (ClassicalFan, and Me included) who are interested in the Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence (SETI) for short...
The core principles of that organisation are somewhere else in the Universe, technologically advanced life could exist and have realised just as we humans did, that Radio Waves are a great way to send information across extremely long distances!..
