Supermassive Black Hole Jets Spark Increased Nova Explosions, Hubble Discovers
Recent findings from the Hubble Space Telescope reveal that supermassive black hole jets may be responsible for an increase in nova explosions in nearby double-star systems. This unexpected connection indicates that the energetic jets emitted by black holes can influence the surrounding stellar environment, leading to heightened activity in nova er...

Look Up! A Once-In-A-Lifetime Explosion Is About To Create A 'New' Star In The Sky
Any night now, a "new star" or nova will appear in the night sky. While it wont set the sky ablaze, its a special opportunity to see a rare event thats usually difficult to predict in advance.

"Once-In-A-Lifetime" Cosmic Explosion Will Be Visible From Earth, Says NASA
The "Blaze Star," which is a binary system in the Northern Crown about 3,000 light years from Earth, is comprised of a white dwarf, an Earth-sized remnant of a dead star with a mass comparable to the sun.

Bright Nova Discovered in Hercules Shone for Only 24 Hours Before It Disappeared
A recently discovered nova has broken all previous records by fading away from view just 24 hours after it became visible to the human eye. The galactic equivalent of a flashbang, a nova is a powerful explosion of light and energy visible for days before is vanishes. The V1674 Herculis nova was seen on the border of the constellation Hercules the H...

Scientists Detect Gravitational Waves From A New Kind Of Nova, Sparking A New Era In Astronomy
Some 130 million years ago, in a galaxy far away, the smoldering cores of two collapsed stars smashed into each other. The resulting explosion sent a burst of gamma rays streaming through space and rippled the very fabric of the universe.
