NASA’s Webb Telescope Captures Rarely Seen Prelude to Supernova

The luminous, hot star called Wolf-Rayet 124 was imaged by NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope. Bright clumps of gas and dust appear like tadpoles swimming toward the star with tails streaming out behind them, blown back by the stellar wind. The surrounding nebula stretches about 10 light-years across. Credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, Webb ERO

NASA Study Helps Explain Limit-Breaking Ultra-Luminous X-Ray Sources

These objects are more than 100 times brighter than they should be. Observations by the agency’s NuSTAR X-ray telescope support a possible solution to this puzzle. Exotic cosmic objects known as ultra-luminous X-ray sources produce about 10 million times more energy than the Sun. They’re so radiant, in fact, that they appear to surpass a

Spectacular Hubble Image Captures Aftermath of Catastrophic Supernova Explosion

The Hubble Space Telescope captured an image of the aftermath of a Type II supernova explosion in the spiral galaxy UGC 2890, which is located 30 million light-years away in the Camelopardalis constellation. While the supernova occurred in 2009, Hubble recently took a break from its regular observing schedule to inspect the aftermath of the
