A billion light-years from Earth lies one of the universe’s most massive structures, a giant elliptical galaxy surrounded by a sprawling cluster of other galaxies…
High-resolution observations with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) imaged a rotating dusty gas torus around an active supermassive black hole. The existence of such…
Astronomers found a rich molecular reservoir in the heart of an active star-forming galaxy with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Among eight clouds identified…
By using data from telescopes, astronomers — and the public — can explore SN 1987A like never before. Three decades ago, astronomers spotted one of…
New images taken with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array have revealed otherwise invisible details of our Sun, including a new view of the dark, contorted…
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/Submillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers have discovered the organic molecule methyl alcohol (methanol) in the protoplanetary disk around the star TW Hydrae….
Using ALMA, astronomers observed a young star named HD142527 and discovered the first firm evidence of planet formation far from the central star in a…
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, astronomers have discovered the youngest disk around a protostar to date. Planets form in disks around their host protostar,…
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array, a team of scientists captured a detailed image of high-density molecular gas around an active supermassive black hole at…
The ALMA Observatory has received the final antenna for the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array project. The final antenna for the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA)…
An international team of astronomers has observed an infrared dark cloud surrounding a baby star that is about ten times larger than those found around…
The largest ground-based radio telescope in the world, the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), can detect hidden gases inside galaxies that might hold the key…
Researchers are hoping to further unlock the mysteries of planet and star formation and study many more young stars and solar systems by using the…
