"Discoveries in Space: Insights into Solar Radio Bursts and Mysterious Signals"
TL;DR
Researchers have discovered a solar radio burst with a signal pattern comparable to the Sun’s heartbeat. Solar flares are intense bursts of electromagnetic radiation generated in the layers of sparse, hot gas that comprise the Sun’s atmosphere. The recent discovery of “the Sun’s heartbeat” can help astronomers understand more about electromagnetism and how it affects activity in the universe and space weather in general. These events can affect technology on Earth because they can inhibit radio communications and GPS navigation.
