Astronomers Capture a Historic Supernova Explosion Like Never Before

For modern astrophysicists, there has been a huge leap in the ability to see the immediate aftermath of a distant supernova explosion with unprecedented accuracy. Observations from telescopes covering the entire world provided the researchers with a worldwide network of advanced space- and ground-based telescopes that enabled them to witness a star's last moments and destruction in real time. This is historical observation and gives an unprecedented insight into the violent deaths of massive stars, new data that could reshape the longstanding models of stellar evolution and herald a new era of cosmic discovery.
