Astronomers Capture the Sharpest Image yet of a Monster Galaxy 12.4 Billion Light Years Away
A team of scientists obtained a magnificent pH๏τograph of a faraway galaxy, reminding us all how little we are in the grand scheme of things. Artist’s impression…
Researchers have discovered the most distant active supermᴀssive black hole to date with the James Webb Space Telescope.
Researchers have discovered the most distant active supermᴀssive black hole to date with the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST). The galaxy, CEERS 1019, existed about 570 million…
The neutrino-based image of the Milky Way is the first of its kind: a galactic portrait made with particles of matter rather than electromagnetic energy.
From visible starlight to radio waves, the Milky Way galaxy has long been observed through the various frequencies of electromagnetic radiation it emits. Scientists have now revealed…
This was one of the most luminous transient events ever seen.
A team of astronomers led by researchers from the University of Birmingham, University College London and Queen’s University Belfast have discovered one of the most dramatic ‘switches…
In July, the moon will pᴀss close to all five planets visible to the naked eye from Earth. This rare event will provide stargazers with a unique opportunity to see the planets in close proximity to each other.

The discovery, predicted by Einstein’s general theory of relativity, was finally confirmed after scientists observed the universe soon after the Big Bang.
Scientists have for the first time observed the early universe running in extreme slow motion, unlocking one of the mysteries of Einstein’s expanding universe. The research is…
Researchers propose a new way of measuring cosmic expansion: lensed gravitational waves
The universe is expanding; we’ve had evidence of that for about a century. But just how quickly celestial objects are receding from each other is still up…
Using NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope, a team of scientists led by University of Arizona astronomers has discovered a threadlike arrangement of 10 galaxies that existed just 830 million years after the Big Bang.

The roar of everything.
A group of Chinese scientists has recently found key evidence for the existence of nanohertz gravitational waves, marking a new era in nanohertz gravitational wave research. The…
The nature of dark matter is a longstanding puzzle. However, a new study uses the gravitational bending of light to bring us a step closer to understanding.
Physicists believe most of the matter in the universe is made up of an invisible substance that we only know about by its indirect effects on the…
