In 2022, astronomers discovered the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) of all time. Now, astronomers confirm that a 'normal' supernova, the telltale sign of a stellar collapse, accompanied the GRB.

“In our research group, we’ve been referring to this burst as the ‘BOAT,’ or Brightest Of All Time, because when you look at the thousands of bursts gamma-ray telescopes have been ...

Lasting a matter of minutes, the gamma-ray burst, named GRB 221009A, was observed by astronomers in October 2022. It has since been dubbed the "B.O.A.T.", the brightest of all time. In a new study ...

April 12 (UPI) --Scientists at Northwestern University said Friday they had confirmed that the cause of the brightest gamma ... burst of electromagnetic radiation -- dubbed the "brightest of all ...

The brightest gamma-ray burst ever recorded recently lit up a distant galaxy — and astronomers have nicknamed it the BOAT, for Brightest of All Time. “We use the boat emoji a lot when we’re ...

though few make it all the way to Earth's surface, as the atmosphere absorbs the vast majority before they can ever make it down to hurt us. However, a sufficiently large gamma-ray burst could ...

Radiation from the explosion — a gamma-ray burst (GRB) known as GRB 221009A ... earning the nickname the BOAT, short for "brightest of all time." Astronomers continued studying the BOAT ...

“We believe that this source is now likely a gamma-ray burst,” it read ... But this time, millions of photons were collected. “They all kind of get jumbled together,” she says.

Hawai’i (KXAN) – The brightest gamma-ray burst in human history was recently detected, scientists with the American Astronomical Society (AAS) announced on Tuesday. Nicknamed the BOAT ...

The GRB, called the Brightest Of All Time (or BOAT ... Astronomers have discovered that the brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever seen had a unique jet structure and was dragging an unusually ...

On Sunday a gamma-ray burst (GRB), the most powerful class of explosions in the universe, caused a wave of gamma rays and X-rays to sweep over Earth. It was also possibly the brightest explosion ...

Scientists at Northwestern University said Friday they had confirmed that the cause of the brightest gamma-ray burst ever observed (the circled infrared afterglow and host galaxy pictured 1-2 ...
