Scientists from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics (IIA) in Bengaluru used data from the Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) aboard the AstroSat mission to study the Andromeda Galaxy. Their original goal was to examine Far Ultraviolet (FUV) emissions from novae during their dormant phases. However, during their research, they unexpectedly detected novae in the active eruption phase, revealing new insights into the dynamics of these stellar events.
