k PKS 2005489 gamma ray burst, artwork PKS 2005489 gamma ray burst. Artwork of a gamma ray burst within the active galaxy PKS 2005489. GRBs are extremely highenergy events. The burst, a flash of radiation seen as two jets, may be as bright as the rest of the universe combined for a few seconds. They are thought to be extremely distant, up to 12 billion light years away. They may be the result of a neutron star being torn apart by a black hole, or activity at the centre of a galaxy. PKS 2005489 was studied with the HESS gamma ray telescope, which confirmed gamma ray emissions and that this was an active galactic nucleus AGN. The results were published in 2005.

PKS 2005-489 gamma ray burst. Artwork of a gamma ray burst within the active galaxy PKS 2005-489. GRBs are extremely high-energy events. The burst, a flash of radiation seen as two jets, may be as bright as the rest of the universe combined for a few seconds. They are thought to be extremely distant, up to 12 billion light years away. They may be the result of a neutron star being torn apart by a black hole, or activity at the centre of a galaxy. PKS 2005-489 was studied with the HESS gamma ray telescope, which confirmed gamma ray emissions and that this was an active galactic nucleus (AGN). The results were published in 2005.
