Astronomers have discovered an important type of titanium blasting out from the center of the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A, a result that could be a major advance in understanding how some massive stars explode.

In April 2019, scientists released the first image of a black hole in the galaxy M87 using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT). However, that remarkable achievement was just the beginning of the science story to be told.

Astronomers have detected X-rays from Uranus for the first time, using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory.

As part of our ongoing data sonification series, three new images have now been released.

Astronomers may have found the most distant supermassive black hole with a jet detected in X-rays using NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory.

Astronomers have found evidence for the existence of a neutron star at the center of Supernova 1987A (SN 1987A), which scientists have been seeking for over three decades.

Astronomers have found evidence for an unusual type of supernova near the center of the Milky Way galaxy.

When three galaxies collide, what happens to the central black holes growing at the cores of each?

In 2020, astronomers added a new member to an exclusive family of exotic stars, with the discovery of a magnetar.
