A new study published in Nature has revealed that neutron star jets can travel at about one-third the speed of light, using a "cosmic speed camera" to measure their speed. The study found that X-ray bursts from thermonuclear explosions on neutron stars actually power up their jets, providing valuable information about how these powerful cosmic jets are launched. This discovery introduces a new technique for measuring neutron star jet speeds and paves the way for further research to understand how jet speed varies with different neutron star properties.

The SETI Institute, the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, and the Breakthrough Listen Initiative have teamed up for a new project called COSMIC, which uses the National Science Foundation’s Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to search for signals from other galactic civilizations. The VLA is collecting data that scientists will analyze for the type of emissions that only artificial transmitters make, signals that would betray the existence of a technically accomplished society. The new processing system for SETI is dubbed “COSMIC” – the Commensal Open-Source Multimode Interferometer Cluster – and is spearheaded by the SETI Institute, in collaboration with the National Radio Astronomy Observatory and the Breakthrough Listen Initiative.
