"Unraveling the Mystery: NASA Telescopes Detect Dead Star's Glitch Triggering Extreme Radio Events in Space"

TL;DR Summary
NASA's X-ray telescopes captured a dead star, or magnetar, releasing a fast burst of radio waves, shedding light on extreme radio events in space. The burst, which lasted only a fraction of a second, emitted as much energy as the sun does in a year and formed a laserlike beam. This observation provides valuable insight into the origin of fast radio bursts, as scientists study the collapsed remains of the exploded star and its unusual behavior, including rapid changes in rotation speed.
