Scientists are still learning about a cosmic 'string of pearls,' a unique celestial relic left by a supernova witnessed by ...
The ’string of pearls’ supernova relic has drawn attention as scientists investigate the unusual star at its center.
This artist’s animation shows a star going supernova. About 22 million light-years away the supernova, SN 2024ggi, exploded in the galaxy NGC 3621. Using the ESO’s Very Large Telescope, astronomers ...
Astronomers have discovered a gamma-ray burst with X-ray activity detected 27 days after the initial explosion, setting a new record for this type of cosmic event. The burst, known as GRB 220706A, has ...
Artist’s impression of a hot core—a warm cocoon of molecular gas surrounding a newborn star—discovered in a supernova remnant. Blue represents high-energy regions produced by the supernova explosion, ...
An international team of astronomers has performed follow-up observations of a peculiar Type Ia supernova designated SN 2023vjh. Results of the observational campaign, published July 9 on the preprint ...
