The Hubble Space Telescope has turned its sharp eye toward a ghostly swirl of stars and gas known as the "Lost Galaxy," given ...
The X‑arithmetic technique offers a powerful new way to map the physics of other galactic structures across the universe and ...
The galaxy's discovery challenges our understanding of how galaxies were formed in the early period after the Big Bang.
A spiral galaxy, shaped much like our Milky Way, has been found in an era when astronomers believed such well-formed galaxies ...
The space agency said supernovas typically brighten rapidly over a period of several weeks before they slowly start to dim. This example, however, took months to ...
An undated image from NASA’s Webb Space Telescope shows an outflow from a nearby still-forming star in infrared light, with a spiral galaxy off in the distance. (NASA via AP) CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) ...
This is an artist’s impression of JADES-GS-z14-0, which as of today is the most distant confirmed galaxy. Galaxies in the early Universe tend to be clumpy and irregular. Supernova explosions in this ...
A new composite image of the Andromeda Galaxy is offering an unprecedented view of our closest spiral galactic neighbor. Composed by NASA and international space partners, the image combines data from ...
Located around 30 million light-years away in the constellation Virgo, the Sombrero Galaxy is instantly recognisable. Viewed nearly edge on, the galaxy’s softly luminous bulge and sharply outlined ...
The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) excels at a lot of things, but there are two things it does better than any other scientific instrument in human history: spotting early galaxies and breaking its ...
JADES-GS-z14-0, the farthest known galaxy, has oxygen, a heavier element than scientists would expect to find just 300 million years after the Big Bang. Credit: ESO / M. Kornmesser illustration ...
