    Strange object that pulses for 2 min every 44 min discovered.

    (Alt-txt: main picture shows a group of radiotelescope dishes in the desert of Australia. The southern Cross is in the background but they are pointing away from this region.
    Also shows picture of region of nebulosity but unhelpfully does not define where it is. I would guess it to be somewhere in the Sagittarius or Scorpius Starfields.
    Another animation shows a wildly spinning globe emitting light from its poles as a possible explanation.)
