Citizen scientists have found several new “odd radio circles<” or ORCs, in distant, enormous galaxy clusters — and through their discoveries, scientists are learning more about how these huge ring-like structures form. ORCs were first identified only six years ago, in 2019, by Anna Kapinska of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory while perusing observations made by the Australian Square Kilometre …

Astronomers have broken two records in one thanks to an incredible serendipitous alignment of cosmic objects. It’s the highest resolution detection of a gravitationally lensed radio arc, and within it, a small kink indicating the presence of a small gravitational mass – the smallest ever seen, creating this effect at cosmic distances. The rest of this article is behind a …

These faint, ghostly rings of radio light seemed to float in deep space, surrounding galaxies like cosmic smoke rings. Now, scientists have discovered the most powerful and distant one yet, and this one …

Astronomers have spotted something new out in deep space. They’re calling it an “odd radio circle,” or ORC for short, and it’s stranger than anything they expected. Picture a faint, glowing ring of radio waves, larger than almost anything else in the cosmos, quietly sitting around a galaxy billions of light-years away. That’s an ORC, and they just …

Once upon a time, ham radio was all about CW and voice transmissions and little else. These days, the hobby is altogether richer, with a wide range of fancy digital data modes to play with. [KM6LYW Radio] has been tinkering in this space, and whipped up a compact ham radio data rig that you can build for well under $100. …

Astronomers have discovered a stunning dual-ring system deep in the cosmos – the most powerful and most distant odd radio circle (ORC) to date. It may shed literal light on the processes that can forge these mysterious structures. In light that has traveled for 7.7 billion years to reach us, a collaboration between citizen scientists and professional astronomers has identified …

For decades, scientists engaged in the Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI) have probed the galaxy for signs of artificial radio transmissions. Beginning with Project Ozma in 1960, astronomers have used radio antennas to listen for possible transmissions from other star systems or galaxies. These efforts culminated in January 2016 with the launch of Breakthrough Listen, the most comprehensive SETI effort …
