In the figure, Australia's main science agency CISRO's ASKAP radio telescope detected a fast radio burst and determined its exact location. Ground-based telescopes around the world, KECK, VLT and Gemini, were then directed to follow-up observations of the galaxy where the event occurred. CSIRO / Andrew Howells
