PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY, Md. (WSVN) — NASA has announced that it has detected a gamma-ray burst, one of the most powerful classes of explosions in the universe, which it has dubbed “The Boat”. This ...
As galaxies go, our Milky Way is pretty quiet. Active galaxies have cores that glow brightly, powered by supermassive black holes swallowing material, and often spit twin jets in opposite directions.
The aftermath of a collapsed and exploded star, a dramatic cosmic event called a supernova. (This is *not* the collapsed star responsible for the historic gamma ray burst described below, which ...
