James Webb spots most distant fast radio burst ever
Original: James Webb telescope tracks the most distant 'fast radio burst' ever, doubling the previous record
The James Webb Space Telescope has helped trace the most distant fast radio burst ever recorded, a fleeting blast of radio waves from the early universe. The detection roughly doubles the previous distance record, giving astronomers a rare glimpse of matter between galaxies billions of light years away and new clues about the universe's 'missing' matter.
Why now: The announcement shatters the previous distance record for fast radio bursts, a major milestone in astronomy.
