id="article-body" class="row" section="article-body"> We're already picking up more signals from deep space. Danielle Futselaar Fast radio bursts from space are a uniquely 21st-century mystery. They were first identified just 12 years ago and, [https://soulofcricketer.hpage.com/sachin-tendulkar-fielding-for-pakistan.html https://soulofcricketer.hpage.com/sachin-tendulkar-fielding-for-pakistan.html] up until very recently, almost nothing was known about them and where they come from. But [ new radio telescopes in Australia] and [/news/new-radio-telescope-picks-up-mysterious-signal-from-space/ Canada are already making it much easier to detect fast radio bursts], or FRBs, and here's a look at what we've learned so far. FRBs are essentially just what they sound like -- radio signals from somewhere in deep space that last for just milliseconds. "Fast radio bursts are exceedingly bright given their short duration and origin at great distances, and we haven't identified a possible natural source with any confidence," Avi Loeb, a Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics theorist, said in [ a press release] back in 2017. Since then, an "[ FRB Theory Wiki]" hosted by the McGill Space Institute has grown to include over four dozen possible explanations ranging from "annihilating mini black holes" to "alien light sails," although most explanations at this point have something to do with pulsars or neutron stars. An (extraterrestrial) intelligent explanation? It should really be no surprise that, as with most space stuff that can't yet be explained without a doubt by some natural phenomenon, aliens have been proposed as a possibility, including by Loeb himself. "An artificial origin is worth contemplating and checking," he says.

NEW DELHI, May 14 (Reuters) - Indian cricket great Sachin Tendulkar has settled his lawsuit with Spartan Sports International, having earlier accused the Australian bat manufacturer of failing to pay him $2 million in royalties. The 47-year-old Tendulkar said in a civil lawsuit filed last year that Spartan had agreed to pay him at least $1 million a year to use his image, logo and promotional services but failed to make a single payment owed since 2016. "Spartan sincerely apologises to Mr Tendulkar for its failure to honour his sponsorship agreement and is grateful for Mr Tendulkar´s patience in resolving this dispute," its director Les Galbraith said in a joint statement issued by the parties on Thursday. Spartan said the batting great has had no association with them since September 2018 and [https://soulofcricketer.hpage.com/sachin-tendulkar-fielding-for-pakistan.html https://soulofcricketer.hpage.com/sachin-tendulkar-fielding-for-pakistan.html] also cancelled the trademark it had registered featuring Tendulkar's silhouette playing a cricket stroke. Tendulkar quit international cricket in 2013 as its most prolific scorer, having amassed a record 34,000-plus runs including an unprecedented 100 centuries.
