Our First Glimpse of a Newborn Supernova - SciShow News

The video discusses recent astronomical discoveries, including the observation of a supernova named AT2018cow, also known as the Cow, which may represent the birth of a black hole or neutron star. This event was unique due to its brightness and short duration. Additionally, a binary star system with a perpendicular protoplanetary disc was discovered, challenging previous theories. These findings provide new insights into stellar phenomena and the formation of solar systems.

How does the newly discovered binary star system HD 98800BaBb differ from previously known systems?

What evidence suggests that the protoplanetary disc around the binary star system is taking steps toward forming planets?
