The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA), at the Paul Wild Observatory, is an array of six 22-m antennas used for radio astronomy
Made up of six identical antennas, the Telescope Compact Array is used by astronomers to study the structure and evolution of our Universe
Strange radio waves emerge from the direction of the galactic center
A variable signal aligned to the heart of the Milky Way is tantalising scientists
Astronomers have discovered unusual signals coming from the direction of the Milky Way's centre. The radio waves fit no currently understood pattern of variable radio source and could suggest a new class of stellar object.
"The strangest property of this new signal is that it is has a very high polarisation. This means its light oscillates in only one direction, but that direction rotates with time," said Ziteng Wang, lead author of the new study and a PhD student in the School of Physics at the University of Sydney.

Astronomers have detected a very unusual variable radio signal from towards the heart of the Milky Way, which is now tantalizing scientists.

Did you see one of the recovery vehicles drove up and then popped the hood of the truck? Wonder what that was about.

It was over so fast! I think that in $/sec that has to be the most expensive entertainment devised.

see the suns of distant worlds,
with teardrops in your hair,elate with wonderous joy the chance of going there
and think again of your world,overgrown or of a later sun toiling,to warm a barren stone.
think not of destructive acts or hide them in the crowd.
And take your place in the flock that grins and thinks aloud.
nor do you repay for your pitiful shallow sight
all not lost tho still not even right
Feel the quake of a dying heavenly sphere,nature goes without remorse ,impervious to fear.
with the deaths of reality and consciousness
until the end of time.
There lay askew ,the carcasses,Subtle and Sublime
And in his tomb goes man the lense and all refracted through,
entropy has its final meal of what belonged to me and you...
