Astronomers identified the origin of a rare long-period radio transient as a white dwarf pulling material from a close red dwarf companion in a compact binary system. The system produces repeating radio and X-ray bursts every 1.4 hours, confirming that at least some of these mysterious signals arise from accreting white dwarf binaries rather than slow-spinning neutron stars. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41550-026-02882-x
