Rare space object blasts X-rays and radio waves every 44 minutes

Astronomers have detected ASKAP J1832-0911, a unique space object 15,000 light-years away, emitting powerful radio and X-ray bursts every 44 minutes. This long-period transient, observed by ASKAP and Chandra, challenges existing stellar evolution models. Scientists believe it could be a magnetar or a binary system with a magnetized white dwarf, potentially revealing new physics.
