Check this out. There are some experiments that just make you…stop. That make you reconsider everything you’ve ever known.
An international team of astronomers using a combination of ground-based telescopes, including the W. M. Keck Observatory on Maunakea, Hawaiʻi Island, has discovered the first-ever spatially resolved, gravitationally lensed superluminous
Astronomers found a handful of unusual objects in JWST survey data. These 9 point sources are being called ‘Astronomy’s Platypus’ because, like the animal, they seem to defy categorization. They’re
Stars and planets are linked together in their formation, evolution, and even in their demises. But many of the details behind this are yet to be revealed. New research outlines
Without a better grasp of stellar flaring, our understanding of exoplanet habitability is at an impasse. Red dwarfs are the most numerous type of star in the galaxy, and they
There is a strong relation between the size of a galaxy’s black hole and the motion of stars in the galaxy’s core, known as the M-sigma relation. It turns out
arXiv:2512.15858v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite numerous search campaigns based on a diverse set of observational techniques, exomoons – prospective satellites of extrasolar planets – remain an elusive and hard-to-pin-down
The first results on the iconic active galactic nucleus MCG–6-30-15 captured with the XRISM mission show the most precise signatures yet of its supermassive black hole’s extreme gravity and the
A new study by researchers at the University of Amsterdam shows how gravitational waves from black holes can be used to reveal the presence of dark matter and help determine
