Scientists have observed for first time the very early stages of a supernova — death of a star — with a massive star ...
The explosive death of a star - a supernova - is among the most violent cosmic events, but precisely how this cataclysm looks ...
The supernova was the death of a red supergiant star 500 times larger than the sun, in a galaxy just 22 million light-years ...
When this shock reaches the surface, it releases an enormous burst of energy. The star brightens dramatically, becoming visible as a supernova. For a short period, astronomers can study the initial ...
Scientists, using the Very Large Telescope, have captured the earliest stages of a supernova explosion, revealing a star 15 times the mass of our sun exploding in an olive-like shape. The study ...
Astronomers have captured a first-of-its-kind image of a massive dying star.
On April 10, 2024, astronomers began the fast-paced mission to capture supernova SN 2024ggi. Study coauthor Yi Yang of Tsinghua University in China initially learned about its sighting shortly after ...

Scientists now have observed for the first time the very early stages of a supernova, with a massive star exploding in a ...
Chris Ashall, an assistant astronomer at the UH Mānoa Institute for Astronomy, was part of the global team that zeroed in on the stellar explosion known as SN 2024ggi. The supernova was first spotted ...
