Astronomers have discovered the strongest ever gamma ray explosion,exceeding the power of some 9000 exploding stars,in the deep-space constellation Carina.Infact the spectacular blast was found out byFermi Gamma-ray telescope,a collaboration among NASA,the US department of Energy and International partners,and its other Gamma-Ray instrument Gamma-Ray Burst Moniter,recorded the event together,the two instruments have provided the view of the Bursts Gamma-Ray emissions from the range of 3000 to 5billion times of the energy of visible light.subsequently a team led by the Max Plank Institute for Extraterrestial physics in Germany established that the blast occured 12.2 billion light years away using the Gamma-ray burst optical/near infra-red Detector on the telescope at the European Southern observatory in La Silla,Chile.
