Scientists have captured #mysterious radio #signals traveling through #space for more than a decade, with some experts speculating that they could be #aliens attempting to make contact with Earth. Researchers at the University of Tokyo suggest that these fast radio bursts are caused by #starquakes on rapidly spinning neutron stars with powerful magnetic fields. The team found similarities between the #energy released by tremors on the surface of neutron stars and #earthquakes on Earth, indicating the existence of a solid crust on neutron stars that releases huge amounts of energy seen as FRBs.
