Astronomers using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) have detected oxygen in the most distant confirmed galaxy ever found, JADES-GS-z14-0....
The Lambda-CDM (ΛCDM) model has been the foundation of modern cosmology for some time now, successfully describing large-scale structures in the Universe....
New results from the DESI (Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument) Collaboration have revealed signs of a time-varying dark energy.
Two ‘fans’ corresponding...
New images from the Atacama Cosmology Telescope (ACT) reveal the Universe when it was about 380,000 years old.
An image of the CMB radiation from the Atacama...
Black holes may transition into white holes, ejecting matter and even time back into the Universe, according to a new study by physicists from the University...
Described in a paper that appears today in the journal Nature Astronomy, the discovery means habitable exoplanets could have started forming much earlier...
The newly-discovered radio jet spans an astonishing 215,000 light-years, and is associated with J1601+3102, an extremely radio-loud quasar that existed...
Using James Webb Space Telescope observations, astronomers have identified more than 40 microlensed stars in a single galaxy behind the galaxy cluster...
Dark energy — an unknown energy source that is causing our Universe’s expansion to accelerate – doesn’t actually exist, according to new research.
This...
In 2003, Hubble provided evidence of a massive exoplanet around a very old star. Such stars possess only small amounts of heavier elements that are the...
Nicknamed the Firefly Sparkle, the newly-discovered galaxy existed approximately 600 million years after the Big Bang and consisted of a least 10 star...
New observations from the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope confirms previous measurements by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope of distances between...
Astronomers using the MeerKAT Pulsar Timing Array, an international experiment that uses the MeerKAT Radio Telescope in South Africa, have uncovered further...
Primordial black holes have been theorized for decades and could even be ever-elusive dark matter. Still, no primordial black hole has ever been observed....
Astronomers using the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI), a state-of-the-art instrument mounted on NSF’s Nicholas U. Mayall 4-m telescope at...
In 1961, American astrophysicist and astrobiologist Dr. Frank Drake devised an equation in which several factors are multiplied together to estimate the...
The standard model predicted that the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope would see dim signals from small, primitive galaxies. But data are not confirming...
Named LID-568, this 7.2-million-solar-mass black hole appears to be feeding on matter at a rate 40 times its Eddington limit and is seen as it existed...
