ESA Discovers Unexpected 'Haze' of Microwave Transmissions 69
astroengine writes "The European space observatory Planck has discovered something peculiar about our galaxy: it's humming in microwaves and, for the moment, the source of the 'hard' radiation surrounding the galaxy's core is a complete mystery. Also, the Milky Way is home to previously unknown 'islands' of cold carbon monoxide gas, helping astronomers uncover the distribution of star-forming regions."

- Hi there, can I take your order please?
- I'd like a few billion humans. I'll take them medium-rare.
- Thank you sir. Your order will be ready in a few millenia, the time for the interstellar microwave to cook'em.
- Thanks! I'll be waiting outside.
