NASA’s Fermi Mission Uncovers Possible Sibling Supernova Remnants
A new study of two supernova remnants, the debris left behind after stars explode, suggests the explosions came from stellar siblings that once orbited each other. The first star’s detonation sent its binary companion hurtling through space, and then, after traveling for thousands of years, the surviving star blew up too. This multiwavelength scene shows the Jellyfish Nebula supernova remnant…

NASA’s Fermi Mission Creates 14-Year Time-Lapse of the Gamma-Ray Sky
The cosmos comes alive in an all-sky time-lapse movie made from 14 years of data acquired by NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. Our Sun, occasionally flaring into prominence, serenely traces a path through the sky against the backdrop of high-energy sources within our galaxy and beyond. From solar flares to black hole jets: NASA’s Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope team has produced…
