A Big Mystery in Astronomy","description":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ikdOTj6g_Zw Hosted by Fraser Cain. From&amp;nbsp; Apr 26, 2017. Here's a big mystery in astronomy: fast radio bursts. Brief shrieks of radio waves coming from space. What are they? Where do they come from? Astronomers have no idea. &amp;nbsp; Team: Fraser Cain - @fcain \/ frasercain@gmail.com Karla Thompson - @karlaii Chad Weber - weber.chad@gmail.com &amp;nbsp; You might think you\u2019re watching an educational channel, where I explain fascinating concepts in space and astronomy, but that\u2019s not really what\u2019s going on here.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp; What\u2019s actually happening is that you\u2019re tagging along as I learn more and more about new and cool things happening in the Universe. I dig into them like a badger hiding a cow carcass, and we all get to enjoy the cache of knowledge I uncover. &amp;nbsp; Okay, that analogy got a little weird. Anyway, my point is. Squirrel! &amp;nbsp; Fast radio bursts are the new cosmic whatzits confusing and baffling astronomers, and now we get to take a front seat and watch them move through all stages of process of discovery. &amp;nbsp; We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.&amp;nbsp; Just visit: https:\/\/www.patreon.com\/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!
