NSF Awards $4.5 Million for Study of Cosmic Transients

A Caltech-led project that includes University of Maryland astronomers has been selected to receive $4.5 million over five years by the National Science Foundation through its Partnership for International Research and Education (PIRE) program. The project aims to improve our understanding of cosmic transients—ephemeral, extremely bright flashes of light that suddenly appear in the night sky, shining like new stars—a million to a billion times brighter than the sun—then quickly fading away.
