Astronomers have spotted AT2025ulz, a rare dual explosion — a supernova and a kilonova — that may be the first-ever observed ...

Scientists have developed the longest and most complex simulation to date of a binary neutron star collision that results in the formation of a black hole and a jet. The breakthrough will massively ...

A double blast of dying stars may be the first observed case of a long-hypothesized, never proven “superkilonova.” Although astronomers are still searching for concrete answers, a study published in ...

A neutron star's final moments may spark violent starquakes, monster shock waves, and even a fleeting, never-before-seen object called a black hole pulsar. When you purchase through links on our site, ...
