Scientists have uncovered the source of the mysterious radio signal that took eight billion years to reach us. A new research presented during the 243rd meeting of the American Astronomical Society in New Orleans, Louisiana, said the most distinct and ancient fast radio burst (FRB) came from a location that dates halfway back to the Big Bang.

Radio signal that took 8 billion years to reach Earth came from seven interacting galaxies

Astronomers have recorded a mysterious signal coming from far away in the distant universe that took eight billion years to reach us. According to a paper published in Science journal, the distinctive signal represents 'fast radio bursts' or FRBs, a cosmic phenomenon.

We know earthquakes. We also know of Marsquakes. But starquakes? Well read on. Scientists and amateur astronomers alike are fascinated by FRBs (Fast Radio Bursts).

Fast Radio Bursts in space occur due to 'starquakes': Study

According to reports, Chinese scientists have detected radio waves from a galaxy 3 billion light years away. The active fast radio burst (FRB) was reportedly detected by China's Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST).

Scientists have detected a strange repeating rhythm of Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) emanating from an unknown source outside our galaxy. The said galaxy seems to be 500 million light-years away from Earth.

Astronomers detect first regular fast radio bursts with origins unknown

Astronomers in Canada have detected a mysterious volley of radio waves from far outside our galaxy, according to two studies published Wednesday in Nature. What corner of the universe these powerful waves come from and the forces that produced them remain unknown.
