In a significant astronomical discovery, researchers found three ultra-faint dwarf galaxies, offering new insights into the ...

Using early data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), a team of scientists have compiled the largest sample ...

This means asking how stars form in situ, inside galaxies, but also how they are accumulated (ex situ) through merging processes, that is, fusion, with other galaxies" explains Tortora ...

Type Ia supernovae have long served as essential tools in cosmology, acting as cosmic beacons that help astronomers measure ...

"Our measurements imply that the supermassive black hole mass is 10% of the stellar mass in the galaxies we studied." Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have discovered ...

"The large volume of data from Rubin will give us a sample of all kinds of Type Ia supernovas at a range of distances and in many different types of galaxies." The Vera C. Rubin Observatory will ...

Now, in a remarkable new image, researchers captured one of these cosmic filaments connecting two galaxies from when the universe was just 2 billion years old. It's the most detailed image of an ...

Within galaxies, as stars were being born ... Or it will be locked up in brown dwarfs and planets that never triggered nuclear fusion, or in stars that withered into white dwarfs.

Astronomers have used the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to find three of the earliest galaxies ever found. They exist less than 400 million years after the Big Bang—a whopping 13.4 billion ...

Now, astronomers must consider that not all fast radio bursts come from younger galaxies and stars. The powerful burst was also traced to an unprecedented 130,000 light-years from its associated ...

An ultra-deep image from the National Science Foundation's Dark Energy Camera reveals a wide variety of galaxies in the unusual Antlia Cluster. Why it's so special: Astronomers used a telescope in ...
