LGM-1 by HLER

The Universe is full of mysterious flashes in the sky called “fast radio bursts”. These bright bursts of radio waves shine for only a few milliseconds. In that instant, they release about a million times more energy than the Sun. Since their discovery in 2007, astronomers have found fewer than 20 – all coming from outside our galaxy, scattered randomly across the sky. But telescopes typically observe small patches of space at a time. If astronomers extrapolate to the entire sky, they estimate as many as 10,000 bursts could be flashing every day. And no one knows what they are. Scientists were searching for pulses of radio waves – from, for instance, rapidly-spinning neutron stars called Pulsars. These city-sized stars, as dense as an atomic nucleus, can spin more than a thousand times per second. As they rotate, they swing a beam of radiation around like a lighthouse, producing radio signals that appear as pulsating blips. But this one signal was weird. The signal was so bright that it saturated the electronics in the telescope. Starting in 2012, astronomers detected several more bursts using other telescopes, confirming that the signals really came from space. And not just anywhere in space. They are from outside our galaxy, maybe as far as billions of light years away, according to initial measurements of a phenomenon called the "dispersion effect". Radio bursts could be a sign of strange and new physics.

"When you are listening to the sound of pulsars, you are listening to actual star-size oscillators with the most minimal and longest lasting drones in the whole universe."
