A brief burst of radio sent from an unknown source across the universe has
been picked up by the state-of-the-art CHIME telescope in
<http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/canada/index.html> Canada.

The signal, known as a Fast Radio Burst (FRB), lasted only a matter of
milliseconds.

Researchers claim the signal is the first radio emission received from
across the universe with a frequency below 700 MHz - the lowest frequency
FRB ever recorded. 

As a result, scientists believe that whatever produced the signal, which has
been branded 'FRB 180725A', is likely to be extremely powerful. 

FRBs are extremely uncommon, with the abrupt radio emissions first
discovered in 2007 and only a handful observed since.
