A zombie star feasting on its surrounding planets and asteroids hasn't escaped the cannibalistic process unscathed. Resulting debris has given this white dwarf a metal scar.

Using two of the agency's X-ray telescopes, NASA said researchers were able to observe a dead star's erratic behavior as it released a bright, brief burst of radio waves.

The mystery of what dwells within dead stars could be solved at last, thanks to supercomputer simulations that show neutron stars are comprised of "cold quark matter."

A runaway dead star predicted to have a close encounter with our solar system in tens of thousands of years will actually miss our neck of the cosmic woods.

A long-dead white dwarf star is running away from Hyades star cluster — and it could help astronomers solve a number of cosmic mysteries.

Earth was hit by a 20trl electron volts burst of energy from a dead star known as the Vela pulsar, thus challenging existing knowledge of pulsars, as it was the highest ever recorded emission.

‘This result challenges our previous knowledge of pulsars,’ scientist says

An international team of astronomers has unraveled new insights about an object at the center of a cosmic mystery — a pulsar that appears to constantly change in brightness. Now, the scientists think they know what’s behind it.
