Intriguing, recent discovery unveils over 100,000 stellar nurseries in all their glory! Astronomers at the PHANGS have charted the newly found nurseries across 90 galaxies, and each one is far more unique than first believed. Stars need tens of millions ...
Black holes are usually resting at the core of almost every sufficiently large galaxy. So these cosmic features have their way with the galaxies, affecting only a small part around the galaxy’s centre. But how’s that really happening? Some predictions ...
Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are some super-intense radio wave pulses from the deep Universe that puzzled astronomers’ work for quite some time. The phenomenon is mysterious yet fascinating, and so far, we couldn’t tell much anything about them. The recent ...
ALMA (the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array) offers new data about the most ancient galaxy of its kind ever observed. By the looks of it, things look a bit complicated. Researchers, however, think otherwise. This discovery is essential to solving long-standing ...
The Milky Way collision with Gaia-Enceladus, also known as Gaia Sausage, holds the key to an ancient secret: when the oldest stars in our galaxy formed. Astronomers discovered recently that many of the stars in the Milky Way were already ...
New insights on how high-mass stars are formed came from a bold Dutch-led team of astronomers. Their work is astonishing, and they succeeded in finding that one of the biggest stars in the Universe are actually created differently from the ...
We live on Earth, which is a part of the larger solar system. The solar system revolves around a central star of the milky Way Galaxy, which is also home to between 100 and 400 billion stars and only one ...
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope is known for its incredible space shots, and the last one is no exception! Recently, Hubble returned to the Veil Nebula to capture it like never before. The new image highlights the nebula’s intriguing features in ...
A team of researchers succeeded in shedding light on how galaxy formation is possible. Apparently, there’s an ancient light that fuels the entire process. The new paper also aims to offer tests for galaxy formation models to understand better the ...
A long-standing theory claims a supermassive black hole is capable of lots of things, including wandering through space. A black hole alone is scary enough, but imagine one in motion. How is this possible? Recently, astronomers have spotted a supermassive ...
