In 2025, one might assume that all types of stars in the Milky Way have been cataloged, yet the universe continues to surprise us. In 1953, American astronomer Alan Sandage revolutionized our ...

In classical models of stellar evolution, so far little importance has been attached to the early evolution of stars. Scientists now show that the biography of stars is indeed shaped by their early ...

(Nanowerk News) White dwarfs are extremely dense stellar remnants with the mass of our Sun but the small size of our planet Earth. They are formed when a low-mass star has burned up all its fuel, ...

Astronomers have discovered a highly unusual and rare object—a fast-spinning Long Period Radio Transient (LPT) dubbed CHIME J1634+44—that challenges current understanding of stellar remnants and ...

When seen in infrared, the faint orange glow of the Sh2–54 stellar nursery reveals stars hidden behind its clouds of star-birthing gas and dust. When you purchase through links on our site, we may ...
