But in the past two decades, new types of black holes have been seen and astronomers are beginning to understand how they ...

Dark matter is one of nature's most confounding mysteries. It keeps particle physicists up at night and cosmologists glued to ...

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), launched in 2022, continues to reshape how we view the cosmos. Designed to look deeper into space and further back in time than any previous instrument, it has ...

Imagine waking up one morning to the news: a black hole is drifting close to our solar system. It sounds like the plot of a .

NASA’s James Webb Telescope captures the "Cosmic Owl," a rare galactic formation resembling an owl’s face. See stunning images.

We measure the extremely long distances between things in space by light years. A light year is the distance that light travels in one Earth year. Light travels at about 300,000 kilometres per second.

"This discovery heralds a broader understanding of the diversity in massive stars' deaths and a need for deeper investigations into the whole landscape of stellar evolution." ...

Astronomers using the Green Bank Telescope spotted surprisingly cold, dense hydrogen clouds embedded inside the Milky Way’s ...

Researchers analysing Webb Telescope data recently found a rare galactic duo. Together, the galaxies form an owl-like structure about 11 billion light-years away.

According to a provocative new study, that might just be our cosmic address. This idea is meant to solve one of the biggest ...

Located billions of light-years away, the "Cosmic Owl" is a pair of colliding ring galaxies spotted by the JWST. It's also an ...

Don’t call them Duergar—they’re dark dwarfs. A new study published in the Journal of Cosmology and Astroparticle Physics (JCAP) proposes that the core of our galaxy is full of an all-new category of ...
