Whizzing and Whirling Stars in the Tarantula’s Web
Some stars are speedier than their siblings: read on to learn about the different populations of runaway stars in the Tarantula Nebula!

In the latest of our #UndergradResearch series, Mckenzie Ferrari compares real optical supernova spectra to models to identify their progenitors.
The collision –or even a near-miss– of a neutron star and a main sequence star can possibly explain long-lived, bumpy supernovae and hypervelocity stars.
Today’s paper presents “echoes” coming from a supernova in the nearby galaxy Centaurus A.
Transients are some of the most variable and most explosive objects in our universe. We’ve got a great overview about all different types of transients in this guide!
How does one measure the gravitational wave signal of a supernova if each event is unique? Is machine learning up to the task? Or is it unknowable?
