Was a powerful cosmic explosion seen by the Einstein Probe launched by a supermassive black hole snacking on a star, by a gamma-ray burst, or by something entirely new?

A cosmic object spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope has flummoxed astronomers. Now, a research team has studied ...

Ring galaxies are some of the rarest galaxies found throughout our universe, and for years scientists have scratched their heads, trying to figure out exactly how these galaxies came to be.

Now, astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered barred Milky Way-like galaxies much further back in time than we previously expected to find them. In modern times ...

A new preprint study has taken a closer look at the "universe-breaking" Little Red Dot galaxies discovered in the early ...

"Our measurements imply that the supermassive black hole mass is 10% of the stellar mass in the galaxies we studied." Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have discovered ...

Astronomers have studied three ultra-faint dwarf galaxies using data from the DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys and the Gemini South telescope. These galaxies, located near the spiral galaxy NGC 300, exist ...

Following that analysis, they found these objects are indeed pretty weird, and in several ways. Despite being only 600-800 million years old, the galaxies appear to be packed with ancient stars ...

NASA's Hubble Space Telescope has captured a cosmic bullseye! The gargantuan galaxy LEDA 1313424 is rippling with nine star-filled rings after an 'arrow' -- a far smaller blue dwarf galaxy -- shot ...
