| The afterglow of GRB 030329 (white dot in center of image), as detected on April 15, 2003, by the Advanced Camera for Surveys on the Hubble Space Telescope. Ohio State University astronomers and their colleagues recently used data from this event and three others to determine that a gamma ray burst is unlikely ever to occur in the Milky Way galaxy.
