GRB 190829A

GRB 190829A is a powerful and energetic burst of gamma rays observed in August 2019, linked to the death of a massive star that collapsed into a black hole. This event produced an extremely bright flash of gamma radiation followed by afterglow emissions in visible and X-ray light, helping scientists study extreme cosmic processes. Its relative proximity compared to other gamma-ray bursts allowed detailed observations, offering valuable insights into how massive stars end their lives and form black holes, as well as the physics governing these energetic phenomena.
