Catch a Star Exploding in Action in 2022 Just five years from now a pair of stars are predicted to merge, forming a glittery and bright new point in the sky ...

How to See a Star Explode in 2022 For the first time, astronomers are confidently predicting how to see this type of brilliant blast, which will be visible with the naked eye.

Our neighborhood nova T Coronae Borealis is due to release a "hydrogen-bomb" worth of energy this September, a once-in-80-years event visible from Earth.

It's just a matter of time before a dead star reignites in space 3,000 light years away. And you'll be able to see it with the naked eye despite the distance. Astronomers say when the explosion ...

Astronomers have detected two stars that are on course to collide and create a spectacular explosion in Earth's sky sometime between 2021 and 2023. This binary star system is known as KIC 9832227 ...

This fall, a recurring explosion that happened just under 3,000 years ago will be visible from Earth with the naked eye. Here's what happened.

NASA's Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is on a mission to better understand what goes on within celestial objects such a stars and supermassive black holes.

Or new to us, anyway. Scientists think a massive star collision occurred about 1,800 years ago, and they’re predicting that the resulting red flash will reach our eyeballs sometime around 2022.

A star’s death usually comes without warning. But an early sign of one star’s imminent demise hints at what happens before some stellar explosions. In a last hurrah before exploding, a star ...
