Gamma-ray bursts are highest energetic explosions ever seen
Updated : 2 years, 4 months ago IST
Washington D.C [USA], Nov 21 (ANI): Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are extremely energetic explosions that have been observed in distant galaxies. They give out most of their energy in gamma rays, light which is much more energetic than the visible light we can see with our eyes.
