00:00It was made entirely from neutrons, and neutrons is different from all that astronomers have seen to now.
00:07So they defined Australian researchers a strange strange object in the Vía Láctea,
00:12detected by a university student who works in their thesis.
00:17Well, it's tremendously exciting to find a new type of object, it's just incredible.
00:24In my life I discovered a pulsar, a galaxy,
00:26I have done enormous studies in the sky, and I found all kinds of interesting things,
00:32but all types of objects were known.
00:35This is the first time I found something completely inesperado
00:39that nobody would have thought that could produce this type of emision.
00:44Revisando data recopilados for years, they could establish some facts.
00:49The object is found in almost 4.000 years of light,
00:52the Earth is incredibly bright, and it has a very strong magnetic field.
00:58According to the first analysis,
01:00it liberates a huge amount of radiation electromagnetic three times each hour,
01:04a frequency that never before was observed.
01:07And that is the math,
01:09as the expert,
01:11it should not have enough energy to produce these radiomagnetic waves
01:16every 18 minutes.
01:18In terms of if the power and consistent signal radiomagnetic
01:21could be sent by another way of life,
01:24the astrophysics admitted that they were worried about that they were extraterrestrial.
01:28But the team could observe the signal in a variety of frequencies,
01:33which means that it should be a natural process,
01:36and not an artificial signal.
01:38The next step is to find more strange objects like this in the universe,
01:42to know if it was a isolated event
01:44or a vast new population that the researchers did not have noticed.
01:48To unlocking this new cosmic mystery.
02:03To unlocking this new cosmic mystery.
