Scientists targeted a light echo previously observed by NASA’s retired Spitzer Space Telescope, and it is one of dozens found near remains of the Cassiopeia A supernova. The Webb images show ...

This supernova, detected as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program, could help scientists add more detail to the cosmic picture of stellar life and death they are ...

The supernova, called SN 2023ixf, occurred as a red supergiant star in the galaxy Messier 101, also known as the Pinwheel galaxy, expired. The team observed the supernova using the Hubble Space ...

"When a star dies, it can explode in a supernova, causing a strong shock wave and forming an interstellar object called a supernova remnant," wrote an international team of scientists in a paper ...

New research indicates that matter ejected during the supernova death of a star can fall back to neutrons stars, giving rise to mysterious "low-field magnetars." ...

"I think all of us on this paper are stressed about there being a next supernova before we have the right instrumentation," Safdi said. "It would be a real shame if a supernova went off tomorrow ...

Astronomers still can’t entirely account for the explosive power of a supernova. “It was thought that this rebounding shock that’s produced when the neutron star forms could explode the star ...

LEDA 22057 is the site of a supernova explosion, named SN 2024PI, which is visible in this image: located just down and to the right of the galactic nucleus. . | Credit: ESA/Hubble & NASA ...

Supernova is a relatively straightforward science fiction movie — at least until it isn’t. The plot centers on a six-person hospital ship that answers a distress call and rescues Karl (Peter ...

"The high explosion energy of AT 2023adsv could indicate that the properties of supernova explosions might have been different in the early universe." Supernovas in the early universe just hit ...
