Monster Space Explosion Powered by Spinning Star with Crazy-Strong Magnetism

NASA's super-powerful space telescope just caught an amazing explosion called a superluminous supernova [an explosion way brighter than normal ones] happening 440 million light-years away! Scientists think it was powered by a magnetar, which is a neutron star [a tiny but super-heavy star made of squeezed-together stuff] that spins really fast and has magnetic fields so strong they'd be unbelievable. This discovery helps scientists finally understand why some space explosions are SO incredibly bright they light up entire neighborhoods of space!
