A Chinese astronaut aboard Shenzhou 5 in 2003 heard an unexplained knocking sound that has remained a mystery for over two decades, with similar reports from subsequent missions, though no definitive explanation has been found.
Scientists initially detected a mysterious radio burst thought to originate from a distant galaxy, but it was later traced to a long-dead satellite from 1964, which seemingly sent a signal from beyond the grave, possibly due to electrostatic discharge or micrometeorite impact, highlighting the strange and unexplored nature of space.
Scientists using CSIRO’s Parkes radio telescope detected unusual radio pulses from a previously dormant magnetar, XTE J1810-197, which unexpectedly came back to life. The magnetar, located roughly 8,000 light years away, is emitting unprecedented amounts of rapidly changing circular polarization, unlike any signals seen from other magnetars. This discovery offers insights into the physics of intense magnetic fields and the complex environments they create, challenging previous theoretical explanations.
