The mysterious space object is still blinking after 30 years

A neutron star at a distance of 15,000 light years in space still flashes every 22 minutes after 30 years.

According to Tekna technology and technology news service, scientists have monitored a neutron star. This star with a very strong magnetic field has been named Magnetar. These stars have the ability to emit radio pulses in a short time period of less than 10 minutes. A magnetar-type neutron star has been identified that emits these waves once every 22 minutes. A short time from the ground point of view is a very long time for a magnetar. The GPM magnetar was first detected by the Wide Field Array Telescope in Western Australia. According to scientists, this neutron star has been emitting this process since 1988.

After 30 years, scientists re-examined this object and found that its pulse emitting time is about 5 times longer than normal. Neutron stars are so named because of the strong gravity in the central core. This issue causes proton and electron to combine as charged particles with other uncharged particles, i.e. neutrons inside the star.

Natasha Hurley-Walker, a physicist at Curtin University’s Radio Astronomy Research Center and one of the authors of the paper, said: “Neutrons have revolutionized our understanding of other neutron stars. Our knowledge about magnetars is challenged by this object. Because which of the magnetars did not have long-term pulses.
