Astronomers have presented the most detailed view of the universe’s history, suggesting it may have originated from an “instanton” rather than a singularity. This revelation,…
Webb’s study of the second-brightest gamma-ray burst ever seen reveals tellurium. Under what conditions many chemical elements are created in the universe has long been…
NASA’s Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, set for a 2027 launch, aims to revolutionize our understanding of the Milky Way through microlensing, potentially discovering new…
Scientists observed rare chemical elements in the gamma-ray burst GRB 230307A, resulting from a neutron star merger. This discovery challenges current understandings of gamma-ray bursts…
The Owens Valley Radio Observatory used their upgraded Long Wavelength Array to capture a unique “radio eclipse” image during the October 14 solar event, revealing…
ESA’s Gaia mission has discovered over half a million new stars, pinpointed 150,000 asteroids, and identified 380 cosmic lenses. These findings advance our understanding of…
A new study reveals that the Moon’s permanently shadowed regions are younger than previously estimated. A team including Southwest Research Institute’s Dr. Raluca Rufu recently…
Researchers have captured groundbreaking radio images of a solar eclipse’s “ring of fire” using the advanced Owens Valley Radio Observatory Long Wavelength Array. The technology…
Astronomers have identified the oldest and most distant fast radio burst (FRB) yet, about eight billion years old, supporting theories on FRBs and their ability…
Scientists theorize balanced black hole pairs can exist, appearing as one, thanks to the ‘cosmological constant’ balancing cosmic expansion and gravitational pull. Researchers from the…
Arp-Madore 2339-661, initially thought to be a pair of interacting galaxies, is in fact a trio comprising NGC 7733, NGC 7734, and NGC 7733N. Located…
A study in Nature Astronomy reveals a synchronized co-evolution of supermassive black holes and their host galaxies, driven by shared gas supplies and consistent across…
Advanced 3D computer simulations have closely mirrored actual observations of light from neutron star mergers, enhancing our understanding of the origin of heavy elements. An…
Astrophysicists propose observing colliding neutron stars (kilonovae) as a new method to address inconsistencies in measuring the Universe’s expansion rate, aiming to resolve the ongoing…
Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers observed three dwarf planets in the Kuiper Belt, discovering light hydrocarbons and complex molecules. These findings enhance our…
Research from the University of Tokyo links fast radio bursts (FRBs) to “starquakes” on neutron stars, offering new insights into earthquakes and nuclear physics. Fast…
Astronomers have detected the most distant ‘fast radio burst’ (FRB) ever, providing a potential tool to measure the Universe’s hidden matter. Upcoming telescopes promise to…
Narrow jet stream near Jupiter’s equator has winds traveling 320 miles per hour. Jupiter has some of the most conspicuous atmospheric features in our solar…
