The Crab Nebula Supernova 1054 AD
On July 4, 1054 the supernova that formed the Crab Nebula occurred in the constellation Taurus. It was bright enough to be visible in the daytime for nearly a month.

Rockstar: Supernova Finale
Lukas Rossi took home the job as Supernova's lead singer, but is he the real winner this season? I'm not sure. Let's explore this idea a bit more, shall we?

Supernova Destroys Star Rho Cas
10,000 light years away, the yellow hypergiant star, Rho Cassiopeiae ("Rho Cas" a type F8-G2 Ia0 star,) has a fantastic chance of already having blown itself apart.

Looking down the barrel
Gamma Ray Bursts (GRB's) puzzled astronomers for decades since their discovery by the Vela nuclear test surveillance satellites in the 60's. Scientists think now the mystery has been solved, adding yet another (unlikely) threat to the catastrophes lurking out there.

Mother lode
Ask anybody what is a supernova, and chances are a vast majority will respond it goes bang and has to do with astronomy. Supernovas are epitomes of out of this world catastrophe, of unimaginable violence. Yet we all have been - in a distant past - within not one but probably several ones. Close and intimate.

OUR black hole. Part II
It seems that every galaxy harbors a black hole in its core. The larger the central bulge of older stars, the bigger the hole. Our Milky Way is no exception, but only recently have we developed techniques suitable for peering into the cocoon and measuring the massive, quiet beast lurking inside.

2 Hanukah The Shamash
The lights go out suddenly in the city below. Electrical failure is universal. Drat, there's not a candle in the house, when there comes a knock at the door. Enter, none other than the Baal Shem Tov. An article full of goodies to keep you very busy looking through the cybersphere, reading stories, finding galaxies and discoveries you'd never contemplated before.

Black holes ain't that black then?
That black holes are a pain in the neck for astrophysicists is more or less well known. Infinites and zeroes are fine for mathematics but not to be found in Nature, yet a black hole in principle hides an infinite at its center, or that was accepted until now.

Get a life II
Picking off where we left, that is describing which are life compatible environments at the galactic and planetary system scale, we now focus on the Solar system and the Earth Moon subsystem.

Get a life - I
It was bound to happen. The issue of extraterrestrial life, or of life in general as it relates to the Universe had to crawl here sooner or later. Tiptoeing around sensitive issues, we plot the journey life and intelligence had to negotiate in this galactic corner, on Earth.

Get a life IV
Given the right conditions, life started almost immediately; yet the road to complex organisms and to intelligence was probably more arduous and fraught with devastating incidents of which the sky was not absent.

Thousands light the night sky to the unaided eye, dimmer or brighter, yet seldom a hint of color to make a difference from an overwhelming whiteness. But the starry zoo features a wild variety in sizes, color and life span.

OUR black hole. Part I
Black holes are strange beasts, small wonder they lure public imagination and feed Sci-Fi writers inspiration with all sort of wild tales.

The Dark Side I
In the first part, we present the evolution of cosmology leading to the postulation of dark matter, the Universe Age Crisis, and the lines of research pursued to solve it.
• dark matter • dark energy • einstein • hubble • machos

The Dark Side II
The first part dealt with advances in cosmology that led to posit existence of "dark matter", and the lines of research intended to characterize universal expansion. We now check the first results and a possible model for the Universe.

The Production of Heavy Elements
The fact that Earth is a rocky planet is a large reason it is capable of supporting life. The heavy elements necessary for this were created in stars and supernovae.

Get a life III
After sniffing well over 99.9% of tentative locations around the Milky Way, a common yet tranquil corner in the Universe, we found a likely place to inhabit. A warm, cozy planet with steady climate driven by a stable star and sizable moon. Now we look to earthly needed features for life to spring.

The Dark Side III
About 97% of what makes the Universe is unknown, a combination of dark matter and dark energy. This is not acceptable as is, neither the disfunctional relationship of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics.
