Their origin remains uncertain, particularly since most are seen once and never again. Astronomers using NASA\u2019s James Webb Space Telescope have pinpointed the host galaxy of the most distant fast radio burst (FRB) seen to date. Their finding has implications for what kind of energetic event creates these bursts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhat makes fast radio bursts interesting is that we don\u2019t know what generates them. We have theories for what objects produce them, but we don\u2019t have conclusive proof,\u201d said Manisha Caleb of the University of Sydney, lead author on the study published Thursday in the journal Science.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The MeerTRAP team used the MeerKAT telescope to detect the burst on March 4, 2024, leading to its designation as FRB 20240304B. The radio data from this burst suggested that it was extremely distant, possibly the most distant one seen to date. To confirm that distance, though, astronomers would need to study its host galaxy. Although they knew the location of the FRB very precisely, the world\u2019s largest ground-based telescopes could not see any galaxy at that spot in the sky. As a result, the team turned to the Webb telescope.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Image: FRB 20240304B (NIRCam Image)<\/h2>\n<div class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\">\n<div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-wide\">\n<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\">\n<figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/missions\/webb\/science\/2026\/10\/STScI-01KKCJGBWX6TE4ABRTFWE9B8SQ.jpg?w=4353&#038;h=3792&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"4353\" height=\"3792\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/missions\/webb\/science\/2026\/10\/STScI-01KKCJGBWX6TE4ABRTFWE9B8SQ.jpg?w=4353&#038;h=3792&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"A field full of small galaxies of all shapes against the blackness of space.

The vast majority of FRBs detected to date occurred billions of years later in cosmic history.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The team discovered that the host galaxy of FRB 20240304B was not typical of other galaxies with FRBs. Most FRB galaxies are massive star-forming galaxies, but the galaxy they found was 1,000 times less massive than they expected.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe thought it would be a big, nicely formed galaxy with lots of stars, and instead it was a little dwarf galaxy, although it was actively forming stars,\u201d said Caleb.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe host sticks out in the whole galaxy sample that we have. And it definitely was not what we were expecting,\u201d said Ben Stappers of the University of Manchester, United Kingdom, a co-author on the paper. \u201cThis combination of using the MeerTRAP project on the MeerKAT telescope to discover and localize these distant bursts and Webb to study their hosts is very exciting.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The galaxy existed at the height of \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/universe\/studying-galaxy-growth-spurts-in-the-early-universe-with-nasas-roman\/\" rel=\"noopener\">cosmic noon<\/a>\u201d \u2013 a period in the history of the universe when star formation was at its peak. The galaxy\u2019s rate of star formation suggested that the majority of its stars may have formed within just 30 million years.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This has important implications for the origin of fast radio bursts. One theory suggests that FRBs may originate from the merger of two neutron stars. However, the process of orbiting neutron stars gradually approaching closer and closer until they collide is expected to take billions of years. As a result, FRBs would be expected to be associated with older galaxies containing more evolved stellar populations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A second theory proposes that an FRB can originate from a single, young, highly magnetic neutron star known as a magnetar through a mechanism like starquakes. In that case, once a massive star explodes as a supernova and leaves behind a magnetar, an FRB might occur relatively quickly with no large time delay. As a result, FRBs would also be expected to be found in younger galaxies like the host of FRB 20240304B.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur work suggests that it\u2019s very unlikely that this FRB was produced by a merger,\u201d said Caleb.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cOur results further show the amazing capability of Webb where we can push boundaries beyond what was previously possible,\u201d said co-author Themiya Nanayakkara of the University of Sydney, Australia.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition to being a record-holder, the new FRB enabled the team to learn more about the billions of light-years of apparently empty space between the burst and Earth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA fast radio burst is almost like a cosmic flashlight. It lights up everything along the path. It carries an imprint of everything that it travels through, so you can use it to trace the \u2018cosmic web\u2019 \u2013 the otherwise invisible matter and structures that it encounters along the way,\u201d said co-author J. Xavier Prochaska of the University of California, Santa Cruz.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The team found the imprint of two cosmic structures on the FRB\u2019s signal \u2013 one previously unknown galaxy cluster at a redshift of 0.3 (about 3.5 billion light-years from Earth), and the nearby Virgo Cluster, which is located about 54 million light-years from Earth.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Image: Farthest Fast Radio Burst Host Galaxy Spectrum<\/h2>\n<div class=\"hds-media hds-module wp-block-image\">\n<div class=\"margin-left-auto margin-right-auto nasa-block-align-wide\">\n<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\">\n<figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-fit \"><a href=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/missions\/webb\/science\/2026\/10\/STScI-01KKBYH5R2ACPDJF5SSX6N3FPJ.jpg?w=3840&#038;h=2160&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"3840\" height=\"2160\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.science.nasa.gov\/dynamicimage\/assets\/science\/missions\/webb\/science\/2026\/10\/STScI-01KKBYH5R2ACPDJF5SSX6N3FPJ.jpg?w=3840&#038;h=2160&#038;fit=clip&#038;crop=faces%2Cfocalpoint\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"A graphic titled \u201cFast Radio Burst Host Galaxy; Most Distant Fast Radio Burst; NIRSpec Integral Field Spectroscopy.\u201d A graph plots brightness of light versus wavelength.
