Something Deep in Our Galaxy Is Pulsing Every 44 Minutes. No One Knows Why

[payton]

• ASKAP J1832-0911 is a long-period radio transient (LPT) object, which emits radio waves in periods of tens of minutes. But it is also the first LPT known to emit X-rays.
• This mysterious object could take many forms, including a pulsar, a white dwarf star in a binary with a low-mass star, or a magnetar.
• The object’s properties don’t exactly fit with any of those proposed options, however.

This extreme object is a long-period radio transient, or LPT—an astrophysical object whose brightness keeps changing.

Few long-period radio transients, whose radio wave emissions vary over tens of minutes, are known.
In fact, the first one was only spotted in 2022. The radio wave intensity of ASKAP J1832-0911 cycled every 44 minutes, and was exceptionally bright in radio at the time of observation.

I heard theres something pulsing deep inside Uranus also

Im sure this is going to end well. All the movies predict a good outcome.

We don't know why? Of course we don't! Most of what is out there is beyond our grasp of understanding.

I have nothing to do with it...

Did not have Kthulu finally being found on my bingo card today

My theory is that it's a Space Nazi numbers station

I was looking to say this. We act like science is settled and everything they feed us is absolute fact, when we don't actually know much of anything, and what they tell us is more about being palatable and controllable.

Dont fall for project blue beam you guys.
We cant even leave lower earth orbit. Nasa lies about everything. Yes space is real but not nasa space lol.

Sounds like TS’ mom

Of all the weird stuff on the internet this shit gives me the creeps.
