telescopes here on earth last week or so on october 9th. and so what scientists believe happened is that there was a massive, massive star, much, much bigger, sometimes they believe between 30 and 40 times bigger than the size of our sun and it collapsed into a supernova and created a black hole. and those newborn black holes are really phone for creates particles that jet through space at speeds sometimes faster than the speed of light. and they also produce high quantities of x-ray and gamma ray radiation and so in addition to telescopes being able to pick up just the mere sight of this explosion from space, they were able to detect the x-ray and gamma ray burst. that yellow circle, that is the actual skpexplosion. that is what a telescope on earth was able to pick up. and to give you an idea of how
An unusually bright and long-lasting pulse of high-energy radiation swept over the Earth. On October 9, 2022, astronomers were shown an unusually bright and long-lasting pulse of high-energy radiation that swept over Earth, according to a statement from NASA.
In the early-morning hours of 14 October 2022, astronomers using the Gemini South telescope in Chile operated by NSF\'s NOIRLab observed the unprecedented aftermath of one of the most powerful explosions ever recorded, Gamma-Ray Burst GRB221009A.
