Astronauts have observed the most distant fast radio burst to date. The international team monitored a distant explosion of cosmic radio waves that lasted less than a millisecond, according to the British news agency “PA Media”. The Extremely Large Telescope at the European Southern Observatory identified the source of the waves in a galaxy so distant that its light took 8 billion years to reach us. It is worth noting that It should be noted that the flow was one of the largest flows ever observed in terms of energy, as it released the equivalent of the sun’s total emissions over 30 years, in a tiny fraction of a second. The researchers pointed out that the discovery confirms that a fast radio stream can be used to measure missing matter between galaxies, providing a new way to measure the mass of the universe. Current methods for estimating the mass of the universe give contradictory answers, and contradict the standard model of cosmology.
