magnetic field

Space research never stops and it seems neither do the surprises.

Until recently astronomers thought only a small percentage of stars have strong magnetic fields, but a new way to probe deeper into their cores could completely overturn that idea.

When certain massive stars use up all of their fuel and collapse onto their cores, explosions 10 to 100 times brighter than the average supernova occur.
