Astronomers using the Near-Infrared Camera (NIRCam) onboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have captured coronagraphic images of the HR 8799...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have explored the lowest mass limit of brown dwarfs within the Flame Nebula, a hotbed of...
Two young protostars are responsible for the shimmering ejections of gas and dust that gleam in orange, blue, and purple in this color image of a portion...
The accretion disk orbiting Sagittarius A* is emitting a constant stream of flares with no periods of rest, according to an analysis of new data from the...
Using the Near Infrared Camera (NIRCam) and the Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) aboard the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have captured...
Wolf-Rayet 140 (also known as WR 140 or HD 193793) is a system of two massive stars located some 5,000 light-years away in the constellation of Cygnus....
Using James Webb Space Telescope observations, astronomers have identified more than 40 microlensed stars in a single galaxy behind the galaxy cluster...
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...
These asteroids are as small as 10 m across, making them the smallest asteroids ever observed in the main asteroid belt.
An artist’s illustration of...
Kepler-51 is a 500-million-year-old G-type star hosting four low density planets, according to a new paper published in the Astronomical Journal.

The sharp resolution of Webb’s Mid-Infrared Instrument (MIRI) brings into focus details of the Sombrero galaxy’s outer ring, providing insights into...
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...
There is no obvious evidence for one or more large exoplanets plowing through the face-on debris disk encircling Vega, one of the brightest stars in the...
NASA has released a beautiful composite image taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope and the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope of a pair of...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have detected a population of 64 brown dwarf candidates with masses ranging from 50 to 84...
