JWST Identifies Most Distant Fast Radio Burst Origin in Dwarf Galaxy

NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has located the source of FRB 20240304B, the most distant fast radio burst (FRB) ever detected, in a dwarf galaxy 11 billion light-years away. This discovery, published in Science, more than doubles the previous FRB distance record, offering crucial new insights into the early universe and the enigmatic origins of these powerful, millisecond-long radio flashes.
