The mystery of radio waves remains unsolved?

The mysterious radio waves have always made the scientists curious. Now we have come closer to the explanation. The source of these radio waves is approximately 6 billion light years from us. During the last 8 years the scientists have been mystified by a short, sudden and also inexplicable radio wave outbreak from the Universe. According to the Nature News , mentioned at msn.dk website, the most detailed investigation has now given some information about where those radio waves come from. The fast radio wave outbreak comes from a compact and magnetized area in the Universe. These radio waves are probably sent from a young neutron star -  a type of compact star that can result from the gravitational collapse of a massive star after a supernova.

During the last 3 years another 15 radio waves were discovered and thanks to that information the scientist believe that these waves originally come from the cosmos. According to the numbers of other medias there are some speculations about the radio waves e.g. that they come from different life forms from another galaxies. In the newest detailed analysis the scientist analyzed the data from the Green Bank Hydrogen Telescope, that is in West Virginia, USA. This analysis tells us that the source of these radio waves is far away from the Earth - approximately 6 billion light years from us. According to the scientists the radio waves were created when some stars were shaking, starquake - something like a earthquake on our planet.  An alternative explanation according to the scientists was that a young and big neutron star sent these radio waves when it collapsed and created a huge black hole. Even though this analysis takes us some steps closer to the real explanation about the mystic radio wave, the mystery still remains unsolved.
