March 29 (UPI) --A gamma-ray burst, which lit up our galaxy last October, was the "brightest burst" ever seen and a once-in-10,000-year explosion, according to NASA. Astronomers have been studying ...
These cosmic explosions are so powerful that they could sterilize all life on Earth - or even vaporize the planet. Luckily, ...
In October 2022, a galaxy 2.4 billion light years away suddenly flared with the brightest gamma ray burst astronomers had ever seen. Piersanti and colleagues used radio transmitters and satellites ...
The massive explosion unleashed a gamma-ray burst, GRB230307A, the second brightest in 50 years of observations and about 1,000 times brighter than a typical gamma-ray burst. GRB230307A was first ...
An international team of astronomers and astrophysicists has found evidence that the bright gamma-ray burst GRB 230307A observed last year was caused by two neutron stars merging, not from a ...
Gamma-ray bursts typically emit as much energy in a few seconds as an entire galaxy of stars will emit in years. Think about this: a single sudden explosion, which becomes as bright as the ...
Gamma-ray bursts are some of the most powerful and brightest explosions in the universe. They result from one of two cosmic scenarios: Supernovae, the death of a very massive star. The collision ...
Caption This illustration shows the ingredients of a long gamma-ray burst, the most common type. The core of a massive star (left) has collapsed, forming a black hole that sends a jet of particles ...
