About this episode
Astronomers have detected GRB 250702B, an extraordinary Gamma‑ray burst that lasted an unprecedented seven hours and erupted three separate times.
Scientists suspect the event occurred when an Intermediate‑mass black hole tore apart a sun-like star, unleashing powerful Relativistic jet. If confirmed, it may provide one of the clearest observations yet of these elusive black holes and reveal new insights into the universe’s most violent processes.
