"It is likely that the 60 Fe peak at about 2–3 Myr originated from a supernova occurring in the Upper Centaurus Lupus association in Scorpius Centaurus (~140 pc) or the Tucana Horologium ...

The story goes that 2.5 million years ago, radiation from a supernova—either in the Scorpius-Centaurus group (460 light-years away) or the Tucana-Horologium group (230 light-years away)—began ...

The paper, "Hubble Space Telescope Reveals Spectacular Light Echoes Associated with the Stripped-envelope Supernova 2016adj in the Iconic Dust Lane of Centaurus A," was published this week.

The second and larger spike seems to have been delivered by a supernova. By calculating the ... from our solar system at the time, while Upper Centaurus Lupus was about 457 light-years away.

Centaurus A (Cen A), located some 12 million ... Launched at the end of 2021, IXPE has already snapped impressive photographs of the supernova remnants Cassiopeia A and the Crab Nebula, as well ...

A new image taken by a camera designed to study dark matter has revealed remnants of an ancient supernova explosion ... the constellations Circinus and Centaurus in the southern sky.

A supernova would have to be fairly close to ... flagged the most likely culprit for both supernovae as the Scorpi­us-Centaurus association, a loosely bound clump of young stars that are ...

In 2016, astronomers saw a supernova going off in a nearby galaxy. Over the following years, they saw the light of this event interacting with the interstellar dust, creating light echoes of the ...

(NASA) The latter spike, they found, was likely the result of a supernova explosion nearby between 2 million and 3 million years ago, either from the Scorpius-Centaurus group of young stars some ...

G292.0+1.8 is a fascinating and relatively young supernova remnant located about 20,000 light-years away in the constellation Centaurus. The remnants of a massive star that exploded in a powerful ...

located about 8,000 light-years from Earth near the constellations Circinus and Centaurus. Initially, researchers estimated the supernova remnant to be about 10,000 years old, based on how far the ...
