A Canadian radio telescope in B.C. has picked up a 91裸聊视频榙eep91裸聊视频� signal from outer space that marks the first of its kind ever to be recorded.
The Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment, also known as CHIME, said it picked up a low-frequency fast radio burst on July 25.
Fast radio bursts (FRB) are intense bursts of radio emissions that last mere milliseconds. While rare, the exact origin of these bursts remain unknown.
The group, which spends most of its time listening for signals from outer space, said the fast radio burst was 91裸聊视频渟pecial91裸聊视频� because it had a frequency of 580 Mhz 91裸聊视频� while no other burst of its kind had been detected below 700 Mhz before. The FRB has been given the name FRB 180725A.

91裸聊视频淭he automated pipeline triggered the recording to disk of ~20 seconds of buffered raw intensity data around the time of the FRB,91裸聊视频� CHIME91裸聊视频檚 Patrick Boyle said in a post on an astronomer telegram forum.
Aside from being able to document FRB91裸聊视频檚, scientists and researchers have very little information about them since being first discovered in 2007.
Some people speculate that they come from black holes, some say alien civilizations and others attribute an exploding star.
