10.8 Billion-Year-Old Fast Radio Burst Linked to Young Galaxy
A fast radio burst (FRB) named FRB 20240304B, detected by South Africa's MeerKAT array, is the most distant FRB yet found. Follow-up observations with the James Webb Space Telescope revealed that the signal originated from a dwarf galaxy where about 90% of the stars formed less than 30 million years ago, challenging previous assumptions about the age of FRB sources.
