    No gamma-ray bursts from within our own galaxy, the Milky Way, have been observed, [161] and the question of whether one has ever occurred remains unresolved. In light of evolving understanding of gamma-ray bursts and their progenitors, the scientific literature records a growing number of local, past, and future GRB candidates.
