Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered a rare jellyfish galaxy 8.5 billion light-years from Earth, offering a pristine look at how cosmic environments violently shut down ...

Scientists led by a team from the University of Chicago recently released a study that mapped some of the largest known objects in the universe. The study may help scientists test theories about how ...

Astronomers have explained how a galaxy cluster maintains its heat, despite emitting X-rays that cool the hot gas at its center. The group discovered the existence of a fast-moving, high-temperature ...

Scientists have released a new study that catalogues the universe by mapping huge clusters of galaxies. These clusters are some of the largest known objects in the universe — and they can help ...

On the left, an artist’s impression of a globular cluster near its birth, hosting extremely massive stars with powerful stellar winds that enrich the cluster with elements processed at extremely high ...

A new study finds that galaxy clusters — cosmic cities packed with thousands of galaxies — trace invisible highways of dark matter stretching up to a billion light years across the universe. Even more ...

Scientists are shining a brighter light on dark matter thanks to a new high-resolution map, unveiling the invisible material that shapes everything we see. Using James Webb Space Telescope’s (JWST) ...
