“The Euclid data clearly confirm the presence of the extremely faint, diffuse light of CDG-2, revealing the galaxy behind the ...

A telescope in Chile has revealed in unprecedented detail the swirling splendor of star-forming gases at the heart of our ...

When a massive star runs out of fuel, its core collapses. This collapse releases a flood of neutrinos, which push a shock wave outward through the star’s layers. If the shock is strong enough, it ...

Astronomers report a supergiant star in the Andromeda Galaxy, M31-2014-DS1, collapsed directly into a black hole without a supernova, confirming predictions of failed stellar explosions.

An international collaboration using the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) has published an exceptionally detailed radio sky map, ...

DS1, collapsed into a black hole without exploding, revealing how stars die in silent “failed supernova” events.

If confirmed, this disappearing act might provide the closest and best observational evidence for the birth of a black hole ...

Astronomers have witnessed a rare cosmic event: a massive star that didn’t explode in a spectacular supernova, but instead quietly collapsed into a black hole.

A massive star brightened in infrared light, then vanished without exploding. Astronomers uncovered the quiet birth of a black hole.

Astronomers watched a massive star in the Andromeda Galaxy vanish over a decade, providing rare evidence of a "failed ...

In 2014, a NASA telescope observed that the infrared light emitted by a massive star in the Andromeda galaxy gradually grew brighter. The star glowed more intensely with infrared light for around ...

A bright star in the Andromeda galaxy appears to have simply vanished. After a dramatic mid-infrared flare in 2014, the ...
