Astronomers Have Tracked a Repeating Radio Signal Across Space to an Unexpected Origin
https://www.sciencealert.com/that-newly-discovered-repeating-frb-has-been-tracked-to-a-really-puzzling-origin/amp

no pleasure bigger than contentment,
no disease worse than greed,
and there is no duty higher than compassion.
