Artist’s impression of the initial shape of a supernova explosion – ESO Press Release

This artist’s impression shows a star going supernova. About 22 million light-years away the supernova, SN 2024ggi, exploded in the galaxy NGC 3621. Using the ESO’s Very Large Telescope, astronomers managed to capture the very early stage of the supernova when the blast was breaking through the star’s surface. Observing the breakout so early on — 26 hours after the supernova was first detected — revealed its true shape. The supernova broke out in an olive-like form. This marks the first ever observation of the shape of a supernova explosion at this very early stage - Credit: ESO/L. Calçada

New image captures spooky bat signal in the sky – ESO Press Release

This image shows a cloud of gas and dust, shaped like a cosmic bat. The image was obtained mostly in visible light with the VLT Survey Telescope (VST), hosted at ESO’s Paranal Observatory in Chile. The intense red glow comes from hydrogen atoms ionised by the intense radiation of young stars within the cloud. The image also includes additional infrared data captured by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA), also at Paranal. The most prominent clouds here are RCW 94, which represents the right wing of the bat, and RCW 95, which forms the body, while the other parts of the bat have no official designation - Credit: ESO/VPHAS+ team/VVV team

GRB 250702B, an unusually long and repeating gamma-ray burst – ESO Press Release

The orange dot at the centre of this image is a powerful explosion that repeated several times over the course of a day, an event unlike anything ever witnessed before. The image, taken with ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT), allowed astronomers to determine that the explosion didn’t take place in the Milky Way but in another galaxy. This gamma-ray burst, named GRB 250702B, was first spotted by high-energy telescopes on 2 July, but its location was uncertain. The image shown here was taken on 3 July with the VLT’s HAWK-I infrared camera, which accurately pinpointed the location of the source. The explosion appeared to be nested within another galaxy, later confirmed by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope. Different scenarios have been proposed to explain this event, such as the collapse of a massive star, or a star ripped apart by a black hole. But none of them can fully account for all the observed properties of the explosion unless the involved objects are rather unusual - Credit: ESO/A. Levan, A. Martin-Carrillo et al.
