Report: Astronomers discover radio signal from galaxy billions of light-years away

Canadian astronomers have reportedly discovered a repetitive radio signal some 2.5 billion light-years away from Earth, only the second example known to mankind. A telescope in British Columbia, otherwise known as Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME), detected 13 pulses, or fast radio bursts (FRBs), in July and August. The first FRB that repeats was detected in 2012.
