The powerful gravity of a galaxy embedded in a massive cluster of galaxies in this Hubble Space Telescope photo is producing multiple images of a single distant supernova far behind it. Both the ...
The Crab Nebula has been one of astronomy’s most scrutinized objects for nearly a millennium, yet Hubble’s first fresh look ...
The main image at left shows a combined Webb and Hubble view of spiral galaxy NGC 1637, with the region of interest in the top right. The remaining three panels show a detailed view of a red ...
Astronomers say they've captured the clearest look yet of a star on the brink of supernova. An international team used NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope to backtrack and find the original star that ...
Discovery of SN 2025wny: A Strongly Graviatationally Lensed Supernova at z=2.01. Joel Johansson et al (2025). Oskar Klein Centre, Stockholm University An international team of astronomers led by Oskar ...
Scientists have detected the most distant supernova ever seen, exploding when the universe was less than a billion years old.
A new discovery about what happens when a supernova – an exploding star – and a black hole collide could change the way scientists understand the lives and deaths of stars. The finding was the first ...
Astronomers find an explanation for the fastest stars in the galaxy while uncovering a new mechanism for a supernova explosion. Credit: Technion illustration Astronomers call a special kind of ...
Yu-Jing Qin, a postdoctoral researcher at California Institute of Technology (Caltech), led a series of spectroscopic observations using Keck Observatory’s Low Resolution Imaging Spectrometer, ...
Last time I wrote about new data that overturns the standard cosmological model. Before anyone starts dusting off their fringe cosmological models, we should note what this new study doesn't overturn.
Nasa. LARGE FORMAT. HUBBLE telescope. Here, in the rubble of a supernova explosion, HUBBLE highlights a neutron star pushed out of the center of the nebula. Vintage chromogenic print. Numbering in the ...
