Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are one of the greater mysteries facing astronomers today, rivaled only by gravitational waves (GWs) ...

Astronomers discover an unusual neutron star that emits double pulses, challenging theories about stellar remnants.

Pulsars are the remnants of large stars that exploded in a supernova. Check out these 7 stunning pulsar images shared by NASA.

An extremely slow pulsar has made scientists “slow down” their assumptions about other pulsars. The pace could be caused by a ...

Neutron star "mountains" would be much more massive than any on Earth—so massive that gravity just from these mountains could produce small oscillations, or ripples, in the fabric of space and time.

While neutron stars typically rotate in milliseconds or seconds, ASKAP J1839-075 takes an astonishing 6.45 hours to complete ...

Astronomers have traced two mysterious fast radio bursts from space to wildly different places, which suggests the phenomenon ...

New research of a Martian meteorite suggests that water - an essential ingredient for life - arose in hot springs on Mars 4.4 ...

Thorne-Żytkow objects that we haven't yet seen. There is, however, more to learn about these stars and the cosmos.

Australian scientists have discovered a collapsed star called a neutron star that spins thousands of times slower than expected. The star, called ASKAP J1839-075, is one of a number of recent ...

Astronomers have detected fast-repeating radio bursts from a distant "dead" galaxy that should not contain the energy to ...

An upgrade to one of Australia's most capable radio telescopes is allowing astronomers to hunt for fast radio bursts (FRBs) ...
