Repeating burst, from a dwarf galaxy a billion light years away. how common is this sort of thing? >> this is probably not aliens trying to send us a message. >> darn. >> i know. >> i'm sorry, poppy. you know, these fast burst radio waves were first discovered in 2007. and hundreds have been discovered. after the hundreds 5% of them repeat these bursts. and now, for only the second time, scientists have discovered something more unique. that between the repeating bursts, there's longer, weaker radio waves that have persistent between those bursts. this leads scientists to believe perhaps there...

Now, these frbs, as you just mentioned, they were first discovered in 2007, and since then, hundreds of them have been detected. but of those hundreds, about 5% of them repeat themselves, so it's a very, very small percentage. now, only for the second time now scientists have discovered that in between those repeating bursts, there are these persistent, weaker radio waves still coming out from these objects. so, scientists, although they've been baffled by what these are, they now think there might even be a new class of frbs or several as a result of this finding. so, you know, there's a lot ...
