After 20 months of monitoring, the ‘China Sky Eye’ telescope helped HKU and international astronomers uncover the first decisive evidence of the binary origins of Fast Radio Bursts located about 2.5 billion light-years away.
HKU proudly inaugurated the Hong Kong Institute for Astronomy and Astrophysics with a plaque-unveiling ceremony on November 3, attended by world-leading scientists and government dignitaries to advance astronomical research in the region.
