Using the Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI) aboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have captured a stunning infrared image of central...
Present-day disk galaxies often exhibit distinct thin and thick disks. The formation mechanisms of the two disks and the timing of their onset remain open...
Astronomers have used the unprecedented sensitivity of the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) onboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope in the thermal...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have detected silicate clouds in the atmosphere of the exoplanet YSES-1c and a circumplanetary...
Using the NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) instrument aboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have captured a new image of the Sombrero...
As part of the Chicago-Carnegie Hubble Program, astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have performed new measurements of the Hubble...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have detected water, carbon monoxide, and silicon monoxide in the dayside atmosphere of WASP-121b...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have captured a remarkable new image of the galaxy cluster Abell S1063.
This Webb image shows...
Water ice heavily influences the formation of giant planets and may also be delivered by comets to fully formed rocky planets. Using data from the Near-Infrared...
The Jovian aurorae are hundreds of times brighter than those seen on Earth, says a team of astronomers by University of Leicester’s Dr. Jonathan Nichols.
These...
Sub-Neptunes are high-occurrence exoplanets that have no solar system analog. Much smaller than gas giants and typically cooler than hot-Jupiter exoplanets,...
Highly ionized neon gas detected at the center of the spiral galaxy Messier 83 by the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) aboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have detected the chemical fingerprints of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and/or dimethyl disulfide...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have discovered an ultra-massive grand-design spiral galaxy that existed just one billion...
NGC 1514’s two central stars, which appear as one in the image from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, formed this scene over thousands of...
The destructive power of an impacting asteroid is primarily estimated by knowledge of its size. The near-Earth asteroid 2024 YR4 reached a peak 2032 impact...
Light from an extremely distant spiral galaxy was bent and magnified by the gravity of a member of the galaxy cluster SMACSJ0028.2-7537 into a ring-like...
The Lyman-apha light from JADES-GS-z13-1 has taken nearly 13.47 billion years to reach us, as it dates back to just 330 million years after the Big Bang.
This...
Emissions from the upper-atmospheric trihydrogen cation (H3+) have been used to study the global-scale interactions of Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus with...
Using the NIRCam and MIRI instruments onboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have produced a high-resolution image of Herbig-Haro...
