The Milky Way looks serene from our vantage point, a hazy river of light arcing across the night sky. Yet the stars that make up that glow are quietly telling a more dramatic story, one in which our ...

The vantage point at Cerro Pachón, with its dark skies and high-altitude clarity, enhances the richness of the image.

Galaxies like our Milky Way grew through cascading mergers of smaller galaxies that began billions of years ago. The ancient ...

“The supermassive black hole at the centre of the Milky Way has not only the capability to destroy stars but it can also ...

A surprisingly mature spiral galaxy named Alaknanda has been spotted just 1.5 billion years after the Big Bang—far earlier ...

Researchers have discovered a large, orderly spiral galaxy that formed soon after the Big Bang, when space was only about 1.5 ...

Researchers have successfully performed the world's first Milky Way simulation that accurately represents more than 100 billion individual stars over the course of 10 thousand years. This feat was ...

From your place inside the Milky Way, you are living within a galaxy that keeps a detailed chemical diary. Every star holds ...

Researchers combined deep learning with high-resolution physics to create the first Milky Way model that tracks over 100 billion stars individually. Their AI learned how gas behaves after supernovae, ...

Using some of the world's most powerful telescopes, a team of researchers found more than 280 galaxies stretched in a line ...
