Using NASA satellite data, researchers observed a new class of stellar explosion, which is similar to novas, but localized and short-lived.
Alloy GRX-810 can be used to build better rocket engines capable of withstanding far harsher conditions.
NASA scientists have invented a new metal alloy that is 1,000 times more durable than current state-of-the-art materials used in aviation and space exploration.
The US space agency believes that Alloy GRX-810 could revolutionise space travel, as it can withstand far harsher conditions than existing materials used within rocket engines.
The material has twice the strength, three-and-a-half times the flexibility and more than 1,000 times the durability under stress at high temperatures.
