"A nearby kilonova event would be visible on Earth … and remain bright in the sky for over a month, if it didn't induce a mass extinction," scientists stated.An artist’s impression of two tiny but very dense neutron stars at the point at which they merge and explode as a kilonova.
Scientists estimate that out of the 100 billion stars in our galaxy, only around 10 neutron star binaries are destined for such a catastrophic collision. While these occurrences are infrequent, their implications for life on Earth have also been a matter of concern and curiosity.following the collision of neutron stars, none of which have occurred within our own Milky Way. But what if it did?
The gamma radiation erupts in a pair of narrow jets on either side of the colliding stars, enveloping each jet as it punches through the material shed during the kilonova. Powerful X-rays, known asare generated as a result of these energetic jets colliding with the surrounding medium. Over years to centuries, a bubble of cosmic rays emanates from the heart of the collision, expanding into space.
