Stardust analysis reveals secrets beyond Sol
==========
A team led by Curtin University researchers has discovered a rare dust particle within an ancient meteorite that originates from a star beyond our Solar System. The particle was analyzed using atom probe tomography, revealing a magnesium isotopic ratio of 3,025, the highest on record and indicative of its formation in a hydrogen-burning supernova. The research sheds light on the processes governing star life cycles and the cosmic landscape.
