Two nearby explosive massive star deaths, or supernovas, may have triggered mass extinction events in Earth's distant past, ...

New research suggests the violent explosions of dying stars may have caused two of Earth’s biggest mass extinctions millions ...

At least two mass extinction events in Earth's history were likely caused by the 'devastating' effects of nearby supernova explosions, a new study suggests. Researchers say these super-powerful blasts ...

Specifically, the findings support the hypothesis that supernovae could have triggered two of the so-called "big five" mass ...

Two of Earth’s five confirmed mass extinction events could have been caused by nearby supernova explosions stripping the ...

Five 'mass extinctions' have decimated our planet since it was formed - now scientists claim the answers to two could be written in the stars.

New research suggests that powerful star explosions, called supernovae, may have caused at least two mass extinctions in ...

Comparing these data sets, the experts found that their research supported the theory that a supernova explosion was ...

Exploding stars known as supernovas may have sparked mass extinctions that wiped out up to 85% of animals on Earth.

Scientists from Keele University have found strong evidence that some of Earth’s past mass extinctions could have been caused by nearby supernova explosions—massive star explosions in the Milky Way.
