For as long as astronomers have known about Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs), they’ve been stumped. About a decade ago, researchers discovered in archived 2001 data an extremely fast — just a few milliseconds — burst of radio emissions. They’d never seen anything like it before, and didn’t know where it came from or what could cause it. Finally, we’re starting to get a few answers.

With the right additional hardware, the RTL-SDR software defined radio can be used as a super cheap radio telescope for radio astronomy experiments such as Hydrogen line detection, meteor scatter and Pulsar observing. Hydrogen Line Marcus Leech of Science Radio Laboratories, Inc has released a tutorial document titled 'A Budget-Conscious Radio Telescope for 21cm', (doc version) (pdf here) where he shows: Two slightly-different designs for a simple, small, effective, radio telescope capable…
