Radio waves are a type of electromagnetic radiation best-known for their use in communication technologies, such as television, mobile phones and radios. These devices receive radio waves and ...

When the New York Times first wrote about "mysterious radio waves" from the cosmos in 1933, they made sure to note one fundamental caveat: "No Evidence of Interstellar Signaling." Indeed, the ...

Antarctic scientists detect unexplained radio waves under the ice while searching for neutrinos, with researcher Stephanie Wissel noting these signals defy physics ...

FAST radio bursts (FRBs) are mysterious, milliseconds-long showers of radio waves that come from unidentified objects outside our galaxy. About 60 FRBs have been identified to date, the strangest ...

Mysterious radio wave pulses from deep in space have been hitting Earth for decades, but the scientists who recently discovered them have no concrete explanation for the origin of the signals. The ...

A new radio wave burst in space is capturing scientists' attention because of what it may tell us about its source. Known as fast radio bursts (FRBs), these signals have been one of the most ...

To U. S. pioneers in the old West, there seemed to be land enough for everybody. So, too, to radio pioneers there seemed to be wave lengths enough for all comers. Firstcomers, who had their pick, ...

Using a laser to detect the effect of radio waves on certain atoms is the basis for a new kind of antenna that resists interference and can receive a wider range of signals.
