The beloved Hubble Space Telescope is reaching its 35th anniversary, and over the years it has taken some stunning images.

The Helix Nebula, located 650 light-years from Earth, has baffled scientists for decades. The planetary nebula was created by ...

Astronomers have discovered an extremely rare, high mass, compact binary star system only ~150 light years away. These two stars are on a collision course to explode as a type 1a supernova, appearing ...

This breathtaking image of V838 Mon showcases a star located approximately 20,000 light-years from Earth in the Monoceros constellation, situated at the outer edge of the Milky Way galaxy.

Deep-sea samples reveal traces of past cosmic explosions, prompting researchers to seek further proof in lunar soil.

The Crab Nebula is the remnant of a supernova which was observed almost 1000 years ago. Although it corresponds to one of the ...

“Supernova explosions bring heavy chemical elements into the interstellar medium, which are then used to form new stars and planets,” said Quintana, formerly a postdoctoral researcher at Keele ...

Today I dive deep into the many different types of nebulas, from the classic diffuse nebula, to supernova remnants, all the way to dark nebulas, all with the amazing help of Space Engine to shows ...

During the final stages in the life of a gargantuan star, its death throes culminate in a powerful thermonuclear blast — a supernova — that typically destroys the celestial object, unleashing ...

In this NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope image, Hubble once again lifts the veil on a famous — and frequently photographed — supernova remnant: the Veil Nebula. Resembling a nightmarish beast rearing ...

The most dangerous parts of a supernova explosion are the outputs like X-rays and gamma rays. Even though they only share a small fraction of a supernova's power, they are extremely dangerous.

This nebula boasts a massive size fitting for the ... believed to be in a short evolutionary stage before becoming a supernova. NGC 2359 is located about 15,000 light-years from Earth, positioned ...
