The CHIME radio telescope in south-western British Columbia, Canada. CHIME has detected eight new repeating Fast Radio Bursts. Photo Credit: CHIME Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are one of the most mysterious phenomena in astronomy. They are extremely brief radio signals coming from deep space, beyond our galaxy, and so far, scientists still don’t know […] 
A composite image of the Milky Way above the Australia Telescope Compact Array, which has been utilised in the study of fast radio bursts in recent years. A series of recent discoveries, including the detection of the first-ever repeating fast radio burst, has added new layers to the existing mystery of this elusive […] A dramatic night-time image of the 64-m Parkes radio telescope in Australia, under the splenor of the Milky Way. The iconic telescope has detected during the last decade a total of 10 mysterious cosmic radio flashes, known as ‘fast radio bursts’. A new study now suggests that these astrophysical sources exhibit a surprising […] A schematic illustration of the Parkes radio telescope receiving the polarised signal from the distant fast radio burst FRB 140514, the first one to be discovered by astronomers in real-time. Image Credit: Swinburne Astronomy Productions Detective novels aside, astronomy and astrophysics could well be considered as the next best occupation for anyone who […] Artist’s impression of a fast radio burst appearing in the sky above the 64-m Parkes Radio Telescope in Australia. A handful of these elusive cosmic radio flashes, whose exact origin remains unknown, have been detected during the last decade.
