Scanning the sky with powerful radio telescopes will only lead to more incredible findings, she said.“The biggest would most likely be the discovery of technosignatures via SETI,” Hurley ...

Previously, long radio bursts were only traced to neutron stars, the dense remnants left after a colossal stellar explosion.But the discovery, described in a study published Wednesday in the journal ...

Dr Iris de Ruiter, a prominent researcher now at the University of Sydney, uncovered this startling finding in 2024 while analysing data from the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) radio telescope in the ...

To solve the Milky Way mystery, de Ruiter devised a method to identify radio pulses lasting seconds to minutes within the archives of the Low-Frequency Array telescope, or LOFAR, a network of ...

We are at a critical time and supporting climate journalism is more important than ever. Science News and our parent organization, the Society for Science, need your help to strengthen ...

NASA’s two-for-one launch of its newest space telescope, SPHEREx — designed to seek out the key ingredients for life in the Milky Way — alongside a sun-focused mission called PUNCH is facing ...

Research into FRBs becomes complex because these bursts either repeat in sequence or occur separately from each other. Research teams employ advanced radio telescopes to both receive and study these ...

According to NASA, the SPHEREx (Spectro-Photometer for the History of the Universe, Epoch of Reionization and Ices Explorer) space telescope is headed on a two-year-long mission that includes the ...

Radio astronomers see what the naked eye can't. As we study the sky with telescopes that record radio signals rather than light, we end up seeing a lot of circles. The newest generation of radio ...
