Astronomers Discover Most Powerful Cosmic Explosions Since the Big Bang
Astronomers have discovered extreme nuclear transients — rare and powerful explosions caused by stars being torn apart by supermassive black holes. These events, brighter and longer-lasting than supernovae, were observed using data from Gaia and ZTF. As the most energetic cosmic outbursts since the Big Bang, they offer valuable insights into blac...

ISRO’s AstroSat Observes First-Ever Nuclear Explosion in Andromeda Galaxy
Using the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) aboard ISRO’s AstroSat, scientists have identified far-ultraviolet emissions from 42 novae in the Andromeda Galaxy. This marks the first detection of such emissions during their outbursts, offering new insights into the processes of stellar explosions. Four of these novae were observed in real-time a...

T Coronae Borealis' Nova Outburst May Happen Soon, Experts Suggest
Astronomers are closely monitoring T Coronae Borealis, a binary star system in the Corona Borealis constellation, for its next nova eruption. The event, expected within months, could light up the night sky as the white dwarf gathers material from its red giant companion, triggering a nuclear explosion. Advanced telescopes like NASA’s Fermi are ga...
