In the 1960’s during the Cold War, US satellites discovered bursts of radiation coming from space. The bursts were intense, brief, and coming from an unknown source. Now we know they are Gamma Ray Bursts. They come in short and long forms and occur sometimes due to the creation of a black hole. However, enduring mysteries still present themselves. Why do the bursts prefer irregular galaxies above spiral or elliptical galaxies and why are there fewer rather than more Gamma Ray Bursts?
