With the help of the Zadko Telescope, an enormous gamma ray burst that happened 11 billion years ago -- before planet Earth was formed was captured by Astronomers in Australia.

Dr. David Coward of the University of Western Australia, also the lead Astronomer behind the discovery informed that the image which they recorded is a window in time thus allowing them to look into the distant past to a time when the universe was very unusual.

Dr. Coward reported, "We are discovering the richness of this transient universe, one that is filled with brief but extremely bright flashes. If a similar explosion happened in our galaxy today, it could result in mass extinctions on Earth."

A faint glow was discovered by the astronomers by comparing the image of the sky using NASA satellite location. The European Southern Observatory reported that the faint glow however should not have been there right at the location later.

It should be noted here that the discovered glow actually is a remarkable event, in which a tart has died and a black hole has emerged.

Furthermore, the telescope was in link with a global network of telescopes, which were further directly liked to communication with NASA's Swift satellite ground station that guided the Zadko Telescope to the sky-positions of gamma ray bursts.

"The Zadko Telescope put the institute on the threshold of an exciting venture that would create a new profile in robotic astronomy in Western Australia," concluded University's Vice-Chancellor Prof Alan Robson.
