Astronomers have tracked the deadly orbital decay of TOI-2109b — a massive gas giant orbiting its star in just 16 hours. The planet is spiraling inward and may soon be torn apart, offering a rare ...

Macquarie University astronomers have tracked an extreme planet's orbital decay, confirming it is spiraling toward its star in a cosmic death dance that could end in three possible ways.

When a star dies in a massive explosion, it leaves behind a supernova remnant - an expanding cloud of gas and dust that tells the story of its violent end. Thanks to Hubble’s breathtaking 4K images, ...

An international team of astronomers has uncovered new evidence to explain how pulsing remnants of exploded stars interact ...

"Transitional millisecond pulsars are cosmic laboratories that help us understand how neutron stars evolve in binary systems." ...

The James Webb Space Telescope has captured a rare glimpse at the gaseous "shrouds" that surround dying stars before they go ...

The only place that's likely to happen is at the very center of our galaxy. And, for a while, there was an excess of ...
