Supernova Remnants Found in Oceanic Samples, Scientists Look to Moon
- Wednesday March 26, 2025
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Scientists have identified supernova debris in deep-sea sediments, including a rare plutonium isotope linked to a kilonova. Researchers believe a neutron star collision occurred nearly 10 million years ago, scattering radioactive material across space. To validate this theory, they plan to analyze lunar soil, which remains undisturbed by Earth's ge...
