505 0  Into the belly of the beast -- Afterglows -- The events in
       context -- The progenitors of gamma-ray bursts -- Gamma-
       ray bursts as probes of the universe. 
520    Gamma-ray bursts are the brightest--and, until recently, 
       among the least understood--cosmic events in the universe.
       Discovered by chance during the cold war, these evanescent
       high-energy explosions confounded astronomers for decades.
       But a rapid series of startling breakthroughs beginning in
       1997 revealed that the majority of gamma-ray bursts are 
       caused by the explosions of young and massive stars in the
       vast star-forming cauldrons of distant galaxies. New 
       findings also point to very different origins for some 
       events, serving to complicate but enrich our understanding
       of the exotic and violent.
