2nd Mysterious Repeating Fast Radio Burst (FRB) Discovered – What Are They?

“Explaining FRBs has become one of the biggest unsolved problems in astrophysics in the last few years.”

— Kendrick Smith, Ph.D., Cosmologist, Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada

“FRBs have to be trillions of times brighter than a pulsar. That's one followed by 12 zeros. That's huge! We have no idea how to make something that bright.”

— Shriharsh Tendulka, Ph.D., Astronomer and CHIME team member, McGill University, Canada
