- Scientists have found evidence of a rare, gargantuan stellar explosion, dating to the earliest days of the universe — less than a billion years after the Big Bang. Known as a "magneto-rotational hypernova," this ancient explosion was roughly 10 times brighter than a supernova. https://www.space.com/magneto-rotational-hypernova-explosion-detected 201 comments space

- Astronomers have spotted a massive disk galaxy, not unlike our own, that formed 12.5 billion years ago when our 13.8 billion-year-old universe was only a tenth of its current age. The galaxy's disk has a mass of 70 billion times that of our sun. It's also rotating at 170 miles per second https://public.nrao.edu/news/alma-discovers-massive-rotating-disk-in-early-universe/ 9 comments science

- Axiogenesis - We propose a mechanism called axiogenesis where the cosmological excess of baryons over antibaryons is generated from the rotation of the QCD axion. The Peccei-Quinn (PQ) symmetry may be explicitly broken in the early universe, inducing the rotation of a PQ charged scalar field. https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.02080 3 comments science
- The neutron star PSR J1748-2446 is the fastest spinning celestial object in the universe. The star rotates 716 times every second, so its equator moves at about 25% the speed of light. It is also 50 trillion times the density of lead and has a magnetic field a trillion times stronger than the Sun’s. http://www.astronomy.com/magazine/weirdest-objects/2015/05/31-neutron-star-psr-j17482246 1684 comments space
