Black Hole unveiled

Black hole mystery unveiled by magnetic star discovery

The discovery of a rare magnetic star - or magnetar - is challenging theories about the origin of black holes.

Magnetars are a special type of neutron star with a powerful magnetic field.

They are formed by gravitational collapse after the original, or progenitor star, dies and forms a catastrophic supernova.

Magnetar would be a good name for a pokemon.
