She said: “This object was appearing and disappearing over a few hours during our observations.

She explained: “It’s a type of slowly spinning neutron star that has been predicted to exist theoretically. “Somehow it’s converting magnetic energy to radio waves much more effectively than anything we’ve seen before.” Objects that turn on and off in the universe are not new, and astronomers call them transients, with some appearing over the course of a few days and disappearing after a few months, and others flashing on and off within milliseconds or seconds.said finding something that turned on for just a minute made the new discovery unusual.
