Radio Signal From 9 Billion Light-Years Away From Earth Captured By Astronomers! Record-Breaking Recording Could Reveal Secrets of Universe's 'Dark Age' (View Tweet)
Astronomers have detected a radio signal from the most ancient galaxy that is reportedly 9 billion light-years away from Earth. As per news reports, the radio signal is an emission line from the universe's most primordial element: neutral hydrogen.
Astronomers have captured a radio signal 9 billion light-years away from Earth, which was picked by the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) in India. The record-breaking discovery was detected by a distinctive wavelength known as a 21-centimetre line or the hydrogen line. Neutral hydrogen atoms reportedly emit it. Galaxies reportedly emit light across a wide range of radio wavelengths. FM Signal from Jupiter's Moon Ganymede Discovered by Juno Spacecraft!
