Astronomers detect the brightest ever fast radio burst
SMRTR summary
Astronomers have detected the brightest fast radio burst (FRB) ever observed, originating 130 million light-years from Earth. Nicknamed "RBFLOAT," this powerful burst came from a galaxy in Ursa Major near a young star-forming region, with James Webb Space Telescope also detecting infrared signals from the same location—potentially indicating a magnetar interaction that produced the burst.
