Even most rocket scientists would rather avoid hard math when they don’t have to do it. So when it comes to figuring out orbits in complex three-body systems, like those

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), an international team of astronomers has observed an elliptical galaxy known as NGC 4486B. Results of the observational campaign, published Dec. 16 on
Ready for another amazing year of skywatching? 2025 was a wild year, with a steady parade of comets knocking on naked eye visibility, and one extra special interstellar comet, 3I/ATLAS.
Imagine a year filled with the breathtaking beauty of the universe, captured through the lens of humanity’s most advanced telescope—the James Webb Space Telescope. This 2026 Astronomy Wall Calendar invites
View larger. | Artist’s illustration of the Cassini spacecraft during a flyby of Titan. Previous analysis of data from Cassini suggested Titan had a global ocean of water beneath its
An international team of astronomers has achieved a first in probing the early universe, using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), detecting a supernova—the explosive death of a massive star—at
Artistic representation of the collision of two planetesimals in the circumstellar disc of the star Fomalhaut. Credit Thomas Müller (MPIA) Young star systems are a place of violent collisions. Rocks,
Comparison result between the DBSCAN algorithm and the KNN algorithm for residual RFI mitigation. Data points marked in red represent signals identified and removed as residual RFI, while those in
The transmission spectrum of TOI-732 c in the NIR. We show the spectrum and retrieved model fits for the one-offset retrieval, as discussed in Section 3.3. This model includes the
Schematic loosely sketching the parameter space accessible using the astrometric technique as compared to the transit methods of exomoon detection in the context of the moon survival rate as a
