Radio burst inside Milky Way may give clues about fast radio bursts

Radio observatories around the world have reported capturing a unique event--a strong, millisecond-long burst of radio waves coming from a type of neutron star inside the Milky Way. Because of its strength, space scientists are hoping that further study will show that it was a fast radio burst (FRB) emanating from within our own galaxy--if so, a great mystery might soon be solved--their source.
