Amaterasu particle
#1
So, astronomers have discovered an extremely high energu particle fallingto Earth and hve named it after Amaratsu a Japanese Sun Goddess.

It's energy has been measured at 240 exa electron volts which is millions of times what the large hadron colider can achieve.  (Exa is 10 with 18 zeros following it)

it has come from a part of space with not much observable going on, outside the galaxy. What could produce such a massive energy? Its already estimated to be far larger than what could be created by a supernova for instance.

Colliding black holes?

Of course you can't rule out some Asgard beam weapon test.  

Quote:The Oh-My-God particle was an ultra-high-energy cosmic ray detected on 15 October 1991 by the Fly's Eye camera in Dugway Proving Ground, Utah, United States.bStill, as of 2023 it is the highest-energy cosmic ray ever observed. Its energy was estimated as (3.2±0.9)×1020 eV (320 million TeV). The particle's energy was unexpected and called into question prevailing theories about the origin and propagation of cosmic rays.

Dugway, you say?  Probably coincidence, but funny it happened at the energy weapon proving ground.
