For the first time, scientists are showing us the start of an explosive and fleeting outer space phenomenon.
Swift observations with the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT) have revealed the explosive death of a star just as the blast was breaking through the star’s surface.
For the first time, astronomers unveiled the shape of the explosion at its earliest, fleeting stage.
This brief initial phase wouldn’t have been observable a day later and helps address a whole set of questions about how massive stars go supernova.
