Astronomers have discovered the first radio signals from a unique category of dying stars, called Type Ibn supernovae, and these signals offer new insights into how massive stars meet their demise.

Astronomers detected radio waves from a rare exploding star, revealing what happens in the final years before a massive star dies.

The signals provide astronomers with a look into the life, and death, of a massive star exploding into a supernova.

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

Artist's impression of a supernova. By ESO/M. Kornmesser/Wikimedia Commons, CC BY My hypothesis is that remnants of a supernova – an exploding star – had an impact on the Earth’s past climate, causing ...

SN2021yfj is a new kind of supernova, challenging our understanding of stellar evolution. Its progenitor lost its outer shells well before the supernova happened and only consisted of its ...

Scientists have revealed for the first time a jaw-dropping early view of an exploding supernova. Observations with the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT) have revealed ...

A rare supernova let scientists glimpse a star's interior, revealing a dense silicon-sulphur shell and unexpected helium that should have vanished earlier. (Nanowerk News) An exploding star has given ...
