Tour: NASA's Chandra Finds Unexpected Fireworks in Aftermath of Stellar Explosions (06-15-2026)
The aftermath of a stellar explosion should be a slowly fading cloud of hot gas. So when astronomers pointed NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory at the nearby galaxy M83, the last thing they expected to find was a population of supernova remnants appearing to dramatically change in brightness.

Quick Look: NASA's Chandra Finds Galaxy Cluster That Crosses the Streams (09-19-2024)
A galaxy has streams of superheated gas crossing one another. This result shows that "crossing the streams" does not necessarily end in disaster. In fact, it may lead to the creation of new structures.
