The James Webb Space Telescope, the flagship observatory of NASA/ESA/CSA, has turned its gaze toward the supernova remnant SN 1987A, revealing its structure with an unprecedented level of detail. About 400 years after Kepler supernova, which exploded in 1604, the skies of the southern hemisphere witnessed another supernova relatively close to us. This was SN 1987A, which exploded on

Analysis of TESS and HARPS observations confirms the existence of a Saturn-like planet orbiting a star associated with the young stellar cluster IC 2602 Stellar clusters are not only beautiful objects to photograph and observe through a telescope, but they also represent an important opportunity for studying stellar evolution. In fact, they are composed of rich samples of stars

A new theoretical study shows that the filamentary structure observed in the supernova remnant Cassiopeia A (Cas A) is a direct consequence of the processes that occurred in the progenitor star immediately after core collapse. Supernovae are among the most energetic explosive events in the Universe. Yet, despite their immense brightness, they convert only about 1% of their energy
