Neutron stars collided and made a near-perfect sphere that has scientists baffled

When neutron stars collide, the explosions they create are perfectly spherical, a new study finds.

This contradicts previous theories surrounding the blasts, known as kilonovas, that suggest they should proceed as flattened discs.

But the reason these blasts take a spherical shape is still shrouded in mystery.

This contradicts previous theories surrounding the blasts, known as kilonovas, that suggest they should proceed as flattened discs. But the reason these blasts take a spherical shape is still shrouded in mystery.

Kilonovas are important to our understanding of cosmic evolution because it is in the extreme conditions created by these massive cosmic explosions that heavy elements such as gold, platinum and uranium are synthesized.
