"Our study provides a new direction to understand the whole evolutionary history of massive stars toward the formation of black hole binaries." ...

In our galaxy, a supernova explodes about once or twice each century. But historical astronomical records show that the last ...

Astronomers have captured the first radio waves ever detected from a rare class of exploding star, a discovery that has given them an unprecedented look into the final years of a massive star before ...

This supernova is one for the record books. A mammoth star explosion known as SN2016aps, which occurred in a galaxy about 3.6 billion light-years from Earth, is the brightest supernova ever seen, a ...

An extremely early Type II supernova explosion, named after the Titan goddess of dawn in Greek mythology, occurred just 1 ...

Astronomers have been able to establish a direct link between supernovae and the formation of black holes and neutron stars, in one of the most intriguing cosmic events ever documented. This discovery ...

Earlier this year, a powerful gamma-ray burst traveled through space from a very distant source in the cosmos. The explosion was traced back to the early universe, just millions of years after the Big ...
