Interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS becomes visible from Earth after passing perihelion in late October, 2025. The comet can be ...
We measure the “warmness” of the dark matter, i.e. the comoving root-mean-square thermal velocity v hrms (1) , with nearly 3000 spiral galaxy rotation curves in the ...
The James Webb Space Telescope’s Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) captured the star as it reaches the end of its life.
Five Year of NASA's James Webb Space Telescope NASA's James Webb Space Telescope was launched nearly five years ago, and the ...
The universe's first galaxies were hot messes, according to a recent study. During their younger days, they were wild, chaotic bundles of turbulent gas, churned up by huge gulps of intergalactic gas, ...
Astronomers observed a massive, multi-temperature plasma eruption from a young Sun-like star, revealing how early solar ...
Two weeks ago, interstellar comet 3I/ATLAS was at conjunction, on the opposite side of the Sun with respect to Earth. Last week, it reached perihelion, the closest point it would ever get to the Sun.
One of those ground-based telescopes is the Rubin Observatory, named after famed astronomer Vera Rubin. Unlike other ...
The very first generation of stars, called Population III stars, are mostly expected to be too distant to see directly – but ...
Astronomers using Hubble and ground telescopes observed a two-phase coronal mass ejection from EK Draconis, a young Sun-like star.
Using the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have captured the clearest picture yet of how galaxies formed in the early universe.
