Mysterious radio signal from deep space flashes Earth 2,000 times within 2 months... - The US Sun

POWERFUL signals are being beamed in Earth's direction from deep space at an unprecedented rate.

According to scientists, a repeating fast radio burst source discovered last year was recorded firing more than 1,800 bursts our way within the space of two months.

Named FRB 20201124A, the object was detected using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST) in China.

Fast radio bursts, or FRBs, are a mysterious space phenomenon.

Over 82 hours of observation spread over two months, according to the paper published in Nature, FAST detected 1,863 bursts.

It's thought the signals come from huge explosions in deep space that fade away in less than a second.
