Default Mysterious Radio Burst Detected From Deep Space!

"It was only a split-second burst of radio waves, but what a radio telescope in Puerto Rico detected has scientists excited about pulses that seem to be originating in deep space."

"Just what is causing these bursts though remains a mystery, but possibilities include evaporating black holes, merging neutron stars or flares sent from magnetars, which McGill described as "a type of neutron star with extremely powerful magnetic fields.""
