Scientists recorded a record burst of gamma rays stronger than 9,000 dying suns.
The spectacular blast, which occurred in September in the Carina constellation, produced energies ranging from 3,000 to more than five billion times that of visible light, astrophysicists said.
“This burst’s tremendous power and speed make it the most extreme recorded to date,” a statement issued by the US Department of Energy said.
Gamma-ray bursts are the universe’s most luminous explosions, which astronomers believe occur when massive stars run out of nuclear fuel and collapse
