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 ...

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

Gas is the crucial raw material required to coalesce and ignite the fusion of a new star. But ultra-faint dwarf galaxies just have too little gravity to hold onto this all-important ingredient ...

"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 ...

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

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 ...

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 ...
