Using the Hubble Space Telescope and an array of other instruments, astronomers have probed supernova wreckage in the Large ...

Last time I wrote about new data that overturns the standard cosmological model. Before anyone starts dusting off their ...

When a massive star runs out of fuel and approaches the end of its life, it explodes in a huge outpouring of energy called a supernova. These events can be so bright that they outshine entire galaxies ...

The Hubble Space Telescope snapped a new view of a hazy spiral galaxy that once hosted a supernova explosion. The galaxy, formally known as NGC 941, lies about 55 million light-years from Earth. Its ...

Thanks to a cosmic magic trick, the Hubble Space Telescope witnesses three different moments in a star's explosive death process. Freelance writer Amanda C. Kooser covers gadgets and tech news with a ...

Through a phenomenon called gravitational lensing, three different moments in a far-off supernova explosion were captured in a single snapshot by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope. The light from the ...

NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has identified a star that was one million times brighter than the Sun before it exploded as a supernova in 2005. According to current theories of stellar evolution, the ...

This week’s image from the Hubble Space Telescope shows a stunning view of a spiral galaxy called UGC 12295, located nearly 200 million light-years away. This galaxy appears face-on from Earth, ...
