Recent research may hold the clue to an enigma that has been puzzling astronomers over the past few years. A mysterious handful of huge, almost perfectly circular radio objects, located in a distant universe, are yet to be explained by science. Now, a new one has been spotted and added to the list by a team of scientists, who posted their findings on 27 April to the preprint database arXiv. The research has since been accepted for publication in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. This discovery may be the first step towards finally finding out what they are.
