Mysterious cosmic ray observed in Utah came from beyond our galaxy, scientists say

  • Space scientists have detected an ultra-high-energy particle that originated from beyond the Milky Way galaxy, adding to the enigma surrounding the origins of cosmic rays.
  • The recently discovered particle, named the Amaterasu particle, has a record-breaking energy level of 244 EeV, rivaling the most powerful cosmic ray ever observed.
  • The source of these ultra-high-energy particles remains unknown, with theories suggesting a larger magnetic deflection than predicted, an unidentified source in the Local Void, or a gap in understanding high-energy particle physics.
