Scientists have managed to extract the history of supernova explosions in our cosmic backyard from radioactive isotopes found in moon dust.

Why do black hole flares die out? It may be down to how stars spin
Why do black hole flares die out? It may be down to how stars spin

Some stars encounter supermassive black holes and live to tell the tale. New research shows why the flares these encounters cause dim over repeated episodes.
