For the first time, astronomers have spotted a star that exploded not once, but twice. A new image of a roughly 300-year-old supernova provides visual evidence that some dying stars undergo a double ...

Pictures of a distant supernova remnant show two concentric rings, providing clear evidence that exploding white dwarf stars ...

An unusual star system created more of a fizz and less of a bang when it exploded in a supernova. The “ultra-stripped” supernova led researchers to discover the two stars 11,000 light-years ...

A newly discovered supernova can be watched as it develops in real-time online and for free. The event will kick off at 6:00 p.m. EDT (2200 GMT) on Thursday, May 25.

And the supernova doesn't have to be so close to us for its cosmic rays to be deadly—within 30 to 50 light years to trigger a mass extinction, depending on the local interstellar medium and the ...

Astronomers have, for the first time, witnessed a star meeting a dramatic end by exploding twice. In a study published in ...
