More space news and info at: http://www.coconutsciencelab.com - gamma-ray burst 020819B (artist's concept based on ALMA observations). 

Some gamma-ray bursts, such as this one, are know as "dark" gamma-ray bursts, as they exhibit very little afterglow. It is thought this is due to there being less gas involved and more dust.

Please rate and comment, thanks!
