A fast radio burst in our own Galaxy
The origins of millisecond-long bursts of radio emissions, known as fast radio bursts, from beyond our Galaxy have been enigmatic. The detection of one such burst from a Galactic source helps to constrain the theories. Evidence that magnetars can be sources of fast radio bursts.
