Astronomers Find Four Hidden Dead Stars Quietly Orbiting Our Cosmic Backyard

Using ultraviolet observations from the Hubble Space Telescope, astronomers have directly confirmed four white dwarf stars hiding in plain sight beside brighter red dwarf companions within about 65 light-years of Earth. The dead stars had been suspected for decades but were too faint to see next to their glowing partners. One of the white dwarfs, just 25 light-years away, took nearly three decades to confirm, and the findings offer a new window into how binary star systems evolve.
