A massive space explosion has created the basic elements needed to form life, astornomers say who saw the second-brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever observed which revealed a new light on how ...

"The gamma-ray burst traveled through intergalactic space at the speed of light for eleven billion years, during which time the Sun and the planets were born." — Timothy Ferris, in the film ...

In studying GRB 230307A, researchers found that not only had it had been the source of the second-largest gamma-ray burst ever recorded, but it was also due to a kilonova, confounding theories ...

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. -- An international team of astronomers has observed extremely rapid bursts of high-energy gamma rays from a distant galaxy, an observation that is challenging how astronomers ...

The gamma-ray burst (GRB) occurred two billion light-years from Earth and illuminated much of the galaxy. Images of the rare and powerful cosmic phenomenon show a halo and "bullseye" like shapes.

Scientists have recorded the biggest gamma ray burst (GRB) to date in the universe. The energy released for greater than what the Sun can generate in its entire 10 billion-year lifespan.

While scientists are still debating the excess, one research group has proposed that gamma-ray bursts can be used as a powerful probe to examine the surplus, which could also observe the formation ...

The gamma ray burst lasted seven minutes and was so powerful that it was off the scale, overwhelming the instruments that detected them. Subsequent readings showed that the burst was 100 times ...

The MACE telescope will observe high-energy gamma rays, contributing to global efforts to understand the most energetic phenomena in the universe, such as supernovae, black holes, and gamma-ray ...

One of the gamma-ray bursts has been confirmed by the European ... to detect bursts of high energy radiation emitted from the biggest, most destructive events in the universe such as the formation ...
