Two of Earth's largest mass extinction events were likely triggered by the fallout from two supernovae in nearby space. This ...

Two of Earth’s five confirmed mass extinction events could have been caused by nearby supernova explosions stripping the ...

New research suggests that powerful star explosions, called supernovae, may have caused at least two mass extinctions in ...

Scientists from Keele University have found strong evidence that some of Earth’s past mass extinctions could have been caused by nearby supernova explosions—massive star explosions in the Milky Way.

At least two mass extinction events in Earth's history were likely caused by the "devastating" effects of nearby supernova ...

The Radcliffe Wave is a massive, undulating structure filled with dense clouds of gas and dust, stretching across several ...

Primordial supernovae got the ball rolling a quick hundred million years or so after the start of the universe.

As part of this, the research team calculated the supernova rate within 20 parsecs of the Sun, or approximately 65 ...

Matteo Paz built a machine-learning algorithm in high school to analyze heaps of data for NASA. He just won a $250,000 ...

Simulations showed that oxygen created by primordial stars first fused with hydrogen in space when those stars exploded into supernovae. Planets that emerged from the molecular clouds left behind ...
