Fast radio bursts (FRB) are usually one-offs so astronomers are particularly intrigued by this most recent FRB which has a consistent burst similar to that of a beating heart.
An international team of scientists has gotten together to create a message to potentially beam out into the cosmos with hopes it'll reach extraterrestrial life forms.
"Within this window, the team detected bursts of radio waves that repeat every 0.2 seconds in a clear periodic pattern, similar to a beating heart," according to MIT. Astronomers at MIT speculate the source of the FRB is from either a radio pulsar or a magnetar. Both radio pulsars and magnetars are types of neutron stars.
