Scientists studied a gamma-ray burst associated with gold . It gave them evidence that short-duration gamma-ray bursts can come from neutron star collisions . The burst was 3.9 billion light-years away from Earth . This burst came from the collision of two neutron stars . It is believed that this event caused an explosion in which most elements were created, including hydrogen and helium.
