Astronomers find First ever Gamma Ray Clock

Astronomers using the H.E.S.S. telescopes have discovered the first ever modulated signal from space in Very High Energy Gamma Rays – the most energetic such signal ever observed. Regular signals from space have been known since the 1960s, when the first radio pulsar was discovered. This is the first time a signal has been seen at such high energies – 100.000 times higher than previously known – and is reported in the Journal „Astronomy and Astrophysics“.
