Did this supernova explode twice?
All supernovae are exploding stars. But the nature of a supernova explosion varies quite a bit. One type, named Type 1a supernovae, involves a binary star where one of the pair is a white dwarf. And while supernovae of all types usually involve a sin.....»»
Dark Energy Camera captures the glowing remains of the first documented supernova
The image of the tattered shell of the first recorded supernova was captured by the U.S. Department of Energy-fabricated Dark Energy Camera, DECam. The camera is mounted on the U.S. National Science Foundation's Víctor M. Blanco 4-meter Telescope at.....»»

SN 2019odp is a massive oxygen-rich Type Ib supernova, study finds
An international team of astronomers has conducted follow-up photometric and spectroscopic observations of a supernova designated SN 2019odp. Results of the observational campaign, published March 24 on the arXiv pre-print server, indicate that SN 20.....»»
Brightest-ever gamma-ray burst (the “BOAT”) continues to puzzle astronomers
No evidence of associated supernova, and afterglow radio data contradicts current models. On October 9, 2022, Swift’s X-Ray Telescope captured the afterglow of the brightest gamma-ray burst ever recorded, called GRB 221009A. On th.....»»
Artificial intelligence finds the first stars were not alone
By using machine learning and state-of-the-art supernova nucleosynthesis, a team of researchers have found the majority of observed second-generation stars in the universe were enriched by multiple supernovae. Their findings are reported in The Astro.....»»
