The Mysterious Radio Signal from the Galaxy: Why did MIT scientists claim that?

Since last 2 years, scientists of many countries including USA and China have caught this mysterious radio signal coming from space. But it only lasts for a few milliseconds. However, this time the radio signal from distant galaxy has been detected by the scientists of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). However, this signal remained for 3 seconds. It was very strange, powerful and mysterious.

It is believed to be some kind of radio burst. Radio wave scattering means very powerful radio waves that are sent to Earth. According to MIT scientists, the signal comes every 0.2 seconds in a gap up to 3 seconds. However, scientists have expressed the opinion that there was no difference in this gap.

This radio signal has been reported in the journal Nature. The radio waves were recorded by Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME). CHIME has the ability to capture these radio signals emitted by hydrogen. It is also able to detect Fast Radio Bases (FRBs). MIT’s Kelvin Leung, Juan Mena Parra, Katalin Shin, Kiyoshi Masui, and Daniel Mishili studied these radio bursts. Mishili was leading the team studying this signal.

Mishili declared that the signal was very strange. From February 2019 to December 21, Mishili caught this signal. Along with this, scientists have also given other information about the signal. However, this signal has been given the name FRB20191221A, Mishili said. It was the longest recorded radio signal. So far, scientists do not even know how FRBs originate. However, it is believed to originate from a radio pulsar or magnestar.
