Scientists may have solved a cosmic mystery: microquasars, stellar systems consisting of a black hole and a star, could be the source of high-energy cosmic rays hitting the...

Cosmic rays have constantly threatened the Earth with deadly radiation, but the atmosphere reduces their effect; otherwise, all life forms would have long ago been extinct. But one fact remains mysterious about these beams — the speed of their movement.
