Neutron Star Revealed as Cosmic Mystery Unraveled by Scientists

London, United Kingdom – Scientists have successfully unraveled a 37-year-old cosmic mystery surrounding a massive explosion in a nearby galaxy. The explosion, originating from a dying star that shone as brightly as 100 million suns, was initially shrouded in debris, obscuring the source of the event in the center. Through new research, the answer has finally been revealed: a neutron star lies at the heart of the dramatic cosmic event. Neutron stars, remnants of larger …
