Mysterious signals keep coming from space: Astronomers find their 'Rosetta stone'
Mysterious signals keep coming from space: Astronomers find their 'Rosetta stone' Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor A pair of stars spiraling around each other. That's the origin of a new source of repeating radio bursts we've detected, called ASKAP J1745. In recent years, astronomers have been puzzling over mysterious bursts of radio signals, known as long-period transients because of how slowly they repeat.
Student astronomer discovers 'Rosetta Stone' for mysterious cosmic signals
Student astronomer discovers 'Rosetta Stone' for mysterious cosmic signals Sadie Harley Scientific Editor Robert Egan Associate Editor An international team led by astronomers at the University of Sydney has uncovered the clearest evidence yet for the origin of an unusual class of cosmic signals. In doing so, they have identified a rare stellar system that is providing scientists with a natural laboratory to study extreme physics. Using CSIRO's ASKAP radio telescope, the team discovered a...
Mysterious repeating radio signal traced to 'vampire' star that's slowly eating its companion
Mysterious repeating radio signal traced to 'vampire' star that's slowly eating its companion Radio astronomers have decoded a peculiar repeating radio signal from deep space, tracing it to a vampiric binary star system. A pair of spiralling stars could be a blueprint for decoding mysterious bursts of radio energy coming from space, according to new research. Long-period transients have puzzled radio astronomers since they were first detected in 2022.
Most detailed map of the universe's hidden magnetic fields released
Most detailed map of the universe's hidden magnetic fields released Lisa Lock Scientific Editor Andrew Zinin Lead Editor The largest magnetic map of the universe ever produced—five times larger than all previous efforts combined—marks the beginning of a new generation of research into intergalactic magnetism. Magnetic fields influence how galaxies grow, how matter moves through space, and how the universe has evolved over billions of years. The new map was produced by an international team...
A stellar “Rosetta stone” reveals the source of mysterious cosmic signals
A stellar “Rosetta stone” reveals the source of mysterious cosmic signals A star caught cannibalizing its companion has finally revealed the origin of one of astronomy’s most puzzling repeating signals. - Date: - June 2, 2026 - Source: - University of Sydney - Summary: - Astronomers have finally cracked the mystery behind a strange class of repeating cosmic signals that has baffled scientists for years.
Scientists locate source of mysterious radio signals after 20 year search: A vampire star and its victim
Scientists locate source of mysterious radio signals after 20 year search: A vampire star and its victim The vampire star is ripping material off that friend. The clashing magnetic fields of a white dwarf star and its neighboring red dwarf star are the source of signals from space that have remained a puzzle for over 20 years, radio astronomers in Australia have found. The signals, or long-period radio transients, are a class of celestial radio emissions discovered in 2005.
Biggest universal magnetic map unlocks new chapter of space research
Hidden cosmic web revealed by WA's Square Kilometre Array with biggest-ever magnetic map Fri 5 Jun 2026 at 2:26pm In short: Scientists from CSIRO and Square Kilometre Array have created the biggest magnetic map of the universe ever made. Data gathered by the enormous radio telescope in Western Australia's Midwest made the project possible. The SPICE-RACS map will aid further research into space, stars and distant galaxies.
