(PhysOrg.com) -- Radio astronomers at the University of Manchester`s Jodrell Bank Observatory have discovered a strange new object in a nearby galaxy. The object, which appeared very suddenly in radio wavelengths and shows no signs of going away, does not appear to be like anything that has been seen in the Milky Way. Dr Tom Muxlow will present the discovery at the National Astronomy Meeting in Glasgow.
