Dark matter, influencing the universe through gravitational interactions, remains elusive with potential forms like WIMPs and axions, the latter possibly forming explosive ‘dark stars.’ Dark…
Detailed pictures of one of the first galaxies show growth in the early Universe was much faster than first thought. Astronomers are currently enjoying a…
The Hubble constant’s measurement discrepancy, known as the Hubble Tension, has been a significant puzzle in cosmology. The James Webb Space Telescope’s confirmation of the…
Dark matter constitutes approximately 85% of the universe’s total matter. Unlike ordinary matter, which interacts with light through absorption, reflection, and emission, dark matter remains…
Astronomers have unveiled new details of planet formation by observing over 80 young stars with ESO’s Very Large Telescope, highlighting the diversity and complexity of…
An orange dwarf star has yielded the tiniest ‘starquakes’ ever recorded, measured by an international team of scientists. Named Epsilon Indi, the star is the…
The quasar produces high levels of radiation and powerful jets, but it has less influence on its surroundings than expected. Astronomers have revealed that a…
At least one in a dozen stars show evidence of planetary ingestion. At least one in a dozen stars show evidence of planetary ingestion according…
Astronomers have identified what could be two of the Milky Way’s earliest building blocks: Named “Shakti” and “Shiva,” these appear to be the remnants of…
IMAP-Ultra captures crucial data on neutral atoms traveling from the edge of our solar system, aiding in the understanding of interstellar and solar wind interactions….
Long before Archimedes suggested that all phenomena observable to us might be understandable through fundamental principles, humans have imagined the possibility of a theory of…
NASA’s Space Telescope Live provides an interactive way to explore the most accurate, up-to-date, publicly available information on current, past, and upcoming observations by NASA’s…
Recent findings show some white dwarf stars halt their cooling due to gravitational energy release, overturning the belief that these stars are simply cooling remnants…
A team of scientists has successfully mimicked black hole conditions by creating a quantum vortex in superfluid helium, shedding light on gravitational interactions and quantum…
The James Webb Space Telescope’s discovery of early galaxies with massive black holes challenges traditional galaxy formation theories, proposing a synchronous development of black holes…
Scientists have identified persistent radio bursts from the Sun similar to Earth’s auroras, opening new research avenues in solar and stellar phenomena. A NASA-funded team…
