Using the extinct niobium-92 atom, ETH researchers have been able to date events in the early solar system with greater precision than before. The study concludes that supernova explosions must have taken place in the birth environment of our sun.
If an atom of a chemical element has a surplus of protons or neutrons, it becomes unstable. It will shed these…
