We know that regular supernovas pose no existential threat to life on Earth in the near-term. But there are other varieties ...

A research team linked nearby stellar explosions to at least one, possibly two, mass die-offs after calculating the supernova ...

At least two mass extinction events in Earth's history were likely caused by the "devastating" effects of nearby supernova ...

“But if a planet — including the Earth — is located too close to this kind of event, this can have devastating effects.” In the study, the researchers provided no evidence that a supernova ...

Scientists from Keele University have found strong evidence that some of Earth’s past mass extinctions could have been caused by nearby supernova explosions—massive star explosions in the Milky Way.

Some of the most massive and influential stars in the universe are OB stars. These blue giants, many times more massive than ...
