Scientists found a dying star could create a new universe instead of a black hole.

A new theoretical study suggests that when a massive star collapses, it might not form a singularity hidden behind an event horizon.

Instead, the collapse could trigger the birth of a tiny new universe inside the dying star. Driven by dark energy, this miniature cosmos would expand and push back against gravity, preventing complete collapse and creating an exotic object known as a gravastar.
