In 2011, a project that surveyed the Milky Way galaxy for exoplanets — which are planets beyond our solar system — spotted an ...
The James Webb Space Telescope has captured an amazing view of interacting galaxies Arp 142. Arp 142 consists of a distorted ...
NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) has recently made observations about galaxy clusters that will help shape our ...
This exhibition serves as the first in a number of different projects currently in the works being developed to commemorate ...
In 1920, astronomers Harlow Shapley and Heber Curtis held a Great Debate. Shapley argued that the spiral nebulae were small and in the Milky Way, while Curtis took a more radical position that they ...
New findings explain the Phoenix cluster's mysterious starburst. Data confirm the cluster is actively cooling and able to generate a huge amount of stellar fuel on its own.
New data reveals a 3-million-light-year filament connecting two galaxies, each of which hosts a supermassive black hole.
Astronomers spent a decade compiling this special image with the Hubble Space Telescope and then stitched together 600 photos to showcase over 200 million stars.
Astronomers have pinpointed an FRB outside a dead galaxy for the first time, challenging existing models that link FRBs to star-forming regions. Using the CHIME/FRB Outriggers, they suspect the burst ...
Once the two galaxies are merged, the supermassive hole in the Large Magellanic Cloud – if black hole there is – will make its way to the galactic center, where it will eventually, after many more ...
It’s neither fast nor food, but a spectacular object called HH 30 looks appetizing for astronomers in a new image from the ...
Space has always captured human curiosity. Whether it's vastness, mystery or its planetary bodies. Many individuals, at some ...
