Reply to comment by Andromeda321 in Fast radio burst linked with gravitational waves for the first time by spsheridan

Hi, Astronomer! I've been looking for someone to ask this question for a long time. Could FRBs be coming from different kinds of events (instead of all having the same kind of cause) and are there differences between FRBs (a sort of an FRB "fingerprint" if you will) by which to classify them into different categories?

Like, could some FRBs be the result of neutron star collisions while other FRBs are the result of alien hyperdrives and could we possibly tell the difference based on what we can observe?

IF renovating is cheaper than moving and rebuilding (And I cannot see a reason why it shouldn't be, then why move it. OTHER than we have a Fuc-ton of bases, Stations, and forts in Colo Sprgs now, and maybe we need to spread the love a bit?
Pete Field is a strategically well-placed base, though, Schriever Space Force Base/Cheyanne-Mnt/Air Acadamy. A bunch of asse ts is located close by.

Peer review really just means it passes basic sense checks by a couple of peers, it isn’t necessarily an exhaustive process. It’s pretty common for papers to get refuted later, in the much more exhaustive long term peer review process that is science, in which a whole scientific community picks the paper apart over time. Unfortunately this can make it difficult for people outside the field to know which papers are currently considered to be authoritative and which aren’t, publication in a top ranked peer reviewed journal means it’s worthy of consideration but could still be completely wrong.
