I thought these space facts were interesting: - Many stars you see in the night sky are two stars orbiting each other. - An Earth-mass of gold was produced by two neutron stars colliding. #taysci4

Thank you, Sarah Leslie @extragalactic.bsky.social for answering questions about black holes. Two things I learned: - We can see black hole jets through radio waves. - Black hole jets can be millions of light-years long. #taysci4 #blackholes

Two facts about galaxies I learned: - Stars can only form with cool gas. - Galaxies that have stopped forming stars are more red because the majority of stars are older #taysci4

This article discusses the red supergiant star WOH-G64, which is about 2000 times the size of our sun and resides in the Large Magelianic Cloud. Astronomers have been able to witness this dying star in real time with a close-up image. eso.org/public/news/es… #tacysci4 #WOHG64
