Introduction NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope has recently unveiled groundbreaking evidence pointing towards the presence of a neutron star at the heart of the SN 1987A supernova remnant. This discovery marks a significant milestone in the ongoing quest to understand the aftermath of core-collapse supernovae and the formation of compact objects like neutron stars or […]
When neutron stars meet, they cause Kilonova explosions, but they’re not as disruptive as you might think. A recent study indicates that when neutron stars collide, the resulting explosions are exactly spherical. This goes opposite to the current thinking that these explosions, known as kilonovas, should move in the form of flattened discs. The round […]
The universe is a vast and mysterious expanse, filled with celestial wonders that continue to captivate the human imagination. Among these enigmatic phenomena, one of the most intriguing is the concept of Gravastars. In this article, we will delve into the fascinating world of Gravastars, exploring their theoretical foundations, distinguishing features, and the implications they […]
Introduction Space is not a barren wasteland but a complex environment teeming with celestial objects and phenomena. Among the most intriguing of these are emission nebula. These vibrant, glowing clouds of gas serve as cosmic nurseries where new stars are born. This article will delve into the science behind emission nebulae, examining their composition, formation, […]
Astronomers used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a tool that observed the Stars collision, to find the cause of an incredibly bright burst of gamma rays. This burst happened when two neutron stars collided with each other. Most likely, the atoms in your ring came from “kilonovas,” when neutron Stars collision occurs into each […]
Stellar evolution tells us how stars are born, live, and die. It tells us about the life of a star in perfect ways. Since a star’s life is too long to watch, that is the reason scientists study many stars in our galaxy at different stages. And by doing this, they combine the whole process. […]
Astronomers find first colliding twin stars in a kilonova explosion. Most of the time when there are spectacular explosions big stars die, however, some stars crackle like firecrackers! About 11,400 light-years from Earth in the southern constellation of Puppis astronomers have recognized a neutron star. The neutron star is in SGR 0755-2933 which might be […]
The Crab Nebula, located in the Taurus constellation, is renowned as one of the most extensively studied celestial objects in the night sky. This extensive article will explore its discovery, characteristics, scientific significance, and cultural impact, in the field of astronomy. Discovery and Historical Background The Crab Nebula, known scientifically as Messier 1 (M1), was […]
Introduction NGC 346 is a captivating celestial object situated in the Small Magellanic Cloud, a dwarf galaxy orbiting our Milky Way galaxy. This star-forming region provides an invaluable look into the processes leading to star birth and the interactions between interstellar gas and radiation. It serves as a cosmic laboratory for a variety of phenomena […]
What are gamma rays and its uses? Gamma rays are a type of electromagnetic radiation that possess high energy, high frequency, and short wavelengths. They are produced by various processes including radioactive decay, nuclear reactions, and high-energy events in space such as supernovae. Gamma rays have a multitude of uses across different fields. In medicine, […]
