Astronomers observed a surprisingly lopsided gas disk around star Gomeisa using a new photonic lantern device, revealing early stellar-formation dynamics.
A winged cloud of glowing gas and dust, RCW 94 and RCW 95, forms a spooky and mysterious “cosmic bat” in our galaxy’s southern sky.
Fast radio bursts remain one of astronomy’s greatest mysteries: millisecond flashes from distant galaxies that challenge our understanding of space and time.
Quasi-stars are hypothetical massive envelopes imprisoning black holes at their cores, forming early in the universe as the seeds of supermassive black holes.
What if our universe isn’t made of matter at all, but pure mathematics, shaping not just physics but the very fabric of consciousness itself?
Astronomers released the GOTHAM legacy dataset for TMC-1, revealing over a hundred molecules and unexpected aromatic species across the cloud.
Scientists explore whether the speed of light changes. VSL theories and recent reviews test c’s constancy and search for telltale observational traces.
The 4MOST spectrograph captured first light on October 18, 2025, recording thousands of spectra at once and launching a major survey globally.
Astronomers observe new rings developing around icy object Chiron between Saturn and Uranus, offering rare clues about how cosmic rings form.
