radio stars
Space-based signal sources
Radio stars are celestial objects that emit detectable radio waves—typically pulsars, quasars, or certain active galaxies.
The term dates from early radio astronomy, when astronomers first discovered that some points in the sky produced strong radio signals.
Separately, radio stars are broadcasting personalities who achieved fame through radio programs, especially during radio's golden age before television.
