The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has caught yet another visual spectacle, depicting layers of interstellar material illuminated by a supernova in a phenomenon known as a thermal light echo.

The subject of this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image is a supernova-hosting galaxy located about 600 million light-years away in the constellation Gemini. Hubble captured this image roughly ...

The Hubble Space Telescope recently captured a snapshot of a rare supernova that sits in the Gemini constellation, about 650 million light-years away from Earth. A newly released Hubble pic shows ...

Astronomers still can’t entirely account for the explosive power of a supernova. “It was thought that this rebounding shock that’s produced when the neutron star forms could explode the star ...

Remnants of the bygone supernova, which is the wreckage from the explosive death of a massive star, continue to captivate astronomers both for its striking beauty and science-packed complex structure.

Supernova is a relatively straightforward science fiction movie — at least until it isn’t. The plot centers on a six-person hospital ship that answers a distress call and rescues Karl (Peter ...

Some 350 years after a supernova, its shockwave reaches interstellar space and causes clouds of gas and dust to glow. Credit: NASA / ESA / CSA / STScI / Jacob Jencson (Caltech/IPAC) Scientists ...

Scientists targeted a light echo previously observed by NASA’s retired Spitzer Space Telescope, and it is one of dozens found near remains of the Cassiopeia A supernova. The Webb images show ...

If any of the three people who directed Supernova had made a science-fiction film with little studio interference, you'd likely have a good movie. In fact, if you divided Supernova’s approximate ...

This supernova, detected as part of the JWST Advanced Deep Extragalactic Survey (JADES) program, could help scientists add more detail to the cosmic picture of stellar life and death they are ...

Advertisement Then the tiebreak began, and Fonseca did what the best players do in the biggest moments: he went supernova. The way the match was going, a single point against the serve might well ...
