Astronomers Discover Mysterious Radio Signals from Deep Space



Astronomers from the University of Manchester have announced a very intriguing discovery. The astronomers have announced that they have picked up some mysterious radio signals that emanated approximately 11 billion light years away from the earth. The scientists have so far been unable to determine where these radio signals originated and are currently going over their data.


So far, the astronomers say that these radio signals are not coming from an Earth-based source. The brightness and distance from our planet lead scientists to believe that the radio signals originate from space distances when the universe was only half of its current age. The scientists also report that the energetics of the radio signals lead them to believe that the radio waves are coming from an intense astrophysical event.
The scientists believe that these astrophysical events are associated with relativistic objects such as neutron stars or black holes. Scientific data so far suggests intensive events releasing huge amounts of energy or having a huge mass as a starting point for the radio bursts. The radio bursts last only a few milliseconds and the most distant one identified by the scientists was approximately 11 billion light years from the Earth. The radio signals were discovered using the CSIRO Parkes 64-meter radio telescope in Australia.



Signal King High Power WiFi Antenna – grab an Internet signal from up to 3 kilometers away and WIN!



There are three truths in life – you will always be standing in the queue that moves the slowest, if you take an umbrella it will not rain and you can never ever have enough WiFi signal.
If you’ve ever suffered from the painful drop out or stuttering video blues, you’ll be first in line to admit that your wireless connection sucks. Well now there’s a solution. The Signal King High Power WiFi Antenna supports Macs, Linux and Windows computers, plugs into a standard USB port and makes all your WiFi problems go away.

The package contains drivers, but if you’re using a later version of Windows you won’t need them, as the operating system will find and install the drivers automatically. You can disable your internal wireless if you want, or just ignore it and use the Signal King as your main connection. The device is designed to really boost your range, they claim up to 3 kilometers away, and also to cope with things like basement signals, and situations where your signal is weak for one reason or another.
