Of all the mysteries of outer space, fast radio bursts (or FRBs for short) are some of the most interesting. These incredibly powerful signals are carried over huge distances and every once in awhile scientists on Earth are able to hear them. Once we pick up on them, we can sometimes pinpoint a spot in the sky from which they originate, but the cause of the bursts remains a mystery.
Most FRBs are one-time deals, and we never hear from them again. Only the rarest ones are heard more than once, and we’ve never heard an FRB that repeats on a regular basis… until now.
