Fast Radio Bursts are mysterious millisecond radio bursts that go off thousands of times a day. Their nature and location have initially been mysterious. I report on recent observational and theoretical developments which has narrowed the candidate zoo, including a recent detection of scintillation and rotation measure with the Green Bank Telescope. The future is bright, with thousands of expected detections in CHIME, and locations with VLBI. I speculate on future scientific applications.
