Astronomers report a strange cosmic blast that looked like a kilonova, then behaved like a supernova, hinting at a possible first “superkilonova” and leaving scientists debating how stars truly die.
Images of Nova Herculis 2021 (V1674 Her) taken with the CHARA Array, two and three days after the eruption began. The images show two outflows expanding in nearly perpendicular directions, forming an ...
