Extragalactic cosmic ray Extragalactic cosmic ray Extragalactic cosmic rays are very-high-energy particles that flow into the Solar System from beyond the Milky Way galaxy. The energies these particles possess are in excess of 10 eV. Unlike solar or galactic cosmic rays, little is known about the origins of extragalactic cosmic rays. This is largely due to a lack of statistics: only about 1 extragalactic cosmic ray particle per square meter per year reaches the Earth's surface (see figure). There are many ideas about which processes may be responsible for cosmic rays with such high energies. In the 'bottom-up' approach, cosmic rays gain more
Madness Live: To the Edge of the Universe and Beyond Madness Live: To the Edge of the Universe and Beyond Madness Live: To The Edge Of The Universe And Beyond is a double live album by British ska band Madness. It was released in November 2006 as in-lays in two consecutive issues of the newspaper "The Mail on Sunday".
