Astronomers track record-breaking radio burst from 130 million light-years away

An international team of researchers, including astrophysicists from Northwestern University, has managed to identify one of the brightest fast radio bursts (FRBs) ever observed – and for the first time pinpoint its location with unprecedented precision.
Merging galaxies create the most powerful radio burst ever discovered. The image was prepared using Dali (artificial intelligence) and should not be considered a scientific image

The Hubble Space Telescope reveals the source of the most powerful radio burst ever recorded

"Astronomers discover that the fastest radio burst ever observed came not from a single galaxy, but from a group of merging galaxies"
