An article accepted for publication in the journal "Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society Letters" reports the detection of a megamaser generated by HATLAS J142935.3–002836, a galaxy undergoing considerable activity due to a galaxy merger that also led to an intense star formation. A team of researchers used the MeerKAT radio telescope to detect the maser emissions.
