It also had the brightest UVOT afterglow ever recorded once corrected for extinction. [46] It had the largest amount of energy ever recorded in the TeV range, [47] and had the most energetic photons ever recorded for a GRB, peaking at 18 TeV. [25] [20] The burst was ten times brighter than any previous GRB detected by the Swift mission. [48]
GRB 200522A is believed to have been formed when two neutron stars collided and exploded, creating an extremely large and bright short-ray gamma burst.The brightness of the emission was 10 times that of predicted, and was around 10,000 times more powerful than the sun in its entire 10 billion year lifetime.

SN 1994D (bright spot on the lower left), a type Ia supernova within its host galaxy, NGC 4526. A supernova (pl.: supernovae or supernovas) is a powerful and luminous explosion of a star. A supernova occurs during the last evolutionary stages of a massive star, or when a white dwarf is triggered into runaway nuclear fusion.

The solar system might have been hit by the brightest explosion ever seen, scientists have said. The pulse of intense radiation began its life in a cosmic explosion two billion light years away ...
At 15:44:06 UT on 7 Mar 2023, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 230307A . [6] at the same time, the Gravitational Wave High-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor light curve shows a roughly fast rise and exponential decay (FRED) shape with a possible precursor, with a total duration of ~100 sec. [7] At 2023-03-07T15:44:09Z UT (Solar Orbiter onboard ...
Cassiopeia A is located 11,000 light-years away in the Cassiopeia constellation. A light-year , equivalent to 5.88 trillion miles (9.46 trillion kilometers), is how far a beam of light travels in ...
