Researchers reported the discovery of a new cosmic conundrum. The new object, GPM J1839-10, operates similarly to a pulsar, emitting frequent bursts of radio radiation. However, the physics that drives pulsars dictates that they would cease generating if they slowed too much, and practically every pulsar we know of blinks at least once every minute.
GPM J1839-10 has a pulse interval of 22 minutes. We don’t know what type of physics or things can power it.
