JWST has detected the earliest galaxies in the universe, but some look “more mature” than expected. Is it time to rethink how ...

A groundbreaking new supercomputer model shows how magnetic fields shape the turbulent flow of charged particles in space.

The JWST has done it again. The powerful space telescope has already revealed the presence of bright galaxies only several hundred million years after the Big Bang. Now, it's sensed light from a ...

A research team led by Shuo Huang (NAOJ and Nagoya University) has observed a massive and extremely active barred spiral ...

In April, scientists captured global attention by announcing they’d found a molecule in a faraway planet’s atmosphere that could signal life there. But a new analysis by University of Chicago ...

A team of astronomers discovered that planet-forming materials can survive and persist even in some of the most extreme ...

The improved capabilities of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) have allowed an international team of astronomers to ...

The largest sample of galaxy groups ever detected has been presented by a team of international astronomers using data from ...

A new device uses quantum optics to filter out starlight in real time — bringing scientists closer to directly observing ...

The project cancellation comes after NASA has already invested 15 years and $3.4 billion in the telescope, which is 90% complete.

The mystery of galaxies in the early Universe just got even weirder. A team of astronomers has identified a giant spiral galaxy so well-formed that it already has a stable galactic bar; a long, ...
