Scientists detect chirping cosmic waves in an unexpected part of space

Scientists have detected cosmic chorus waves, resembling bird chirps, from over 62,000 miles away from Earth?an unprecedented distance. These plasma bursts, captured by NASA's Magnetospheric Multiscale satellites, raise new questions about their formation and the role of Earth's magnetic field. Previously recorded near Earth and other planets, these waves are significant for understanding space physics and satellite communications.
