Indian astronomers observe largest-ever non-rhythmic signals from millisecond pulsars; Anticipate larger cosmic event

Notably, carrying out observations to detect such elusive gravitational waves is what the InPTA is involved in. (Representational image) Millisecond pulsar: Astronomers in India are being said to have observed a stream of signals that are out of sync. The signals are emerging from a millisecond pulsar and indicate a large undetected event that might … Read more
