The explosion of a star, called a supernova, is an immensely violent event. It usually involves a star more than eight times ...

In a groundbreaking cosmic revelation, astronomers have captured the first visual evidence of a dying star erupting in a rare ...

(CN) — While all stars go out in a bang, some go out with two. For the first time, astronomers have recorded visual evidence ...

This is the first evidence for a white dwarf exploding not once, but twice. The discovery could shed new light on how some ...

Astronomers had long been suspecting that some stars do meet their end of life with a dual detonation and new images prove ...

Astronomers studying the remnant SNR 0509-67.5 have finally caught a white dwarf in the act of a rare “double-detonation” supernova, where an initial helium blast on the star’s surface triggers a ...

This image, taken with ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), shows the supernova remnant SNR 0509-67.5. These are the expanding ...

An object that appears to be from beyond our Solar System has been spotted hurtling towards the Sun, which if confirmed would ...

Astronomers have captured a jaw-dropping picture of star that exploded twice. It is the first time researchers have obtained ...

For the first time, astronomers have obtained visual evidence that a star met its end by detonating twice. By studying the centuries-old remains of supernova SNR 0509-67.5 with the European Southern ...

Scientists have obtained photographic evidence of a double-detonation Type Ia supernova for the first time. This rare cosmic ...

A stronomers have finally found evidence for a proposed mechanism for a special kind of supernova, known as a Type Ia supernova. It was proposed that at least some of them experience a double ...
