Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are brief but intense bursts of radio waves from distant galaxies. They are characterized by their extremely high energy, typically lasting only a few milliseconds, yet they can emit as much energy in that short time as the Sun emits in an entire day. FRBs were first discovered in 2007, and their origins remain a topic of active research.
