XRISM allowed astronomers to track plasma as it circled the supermassive black hole at a distance of around 0.1 light-years away. This material gradually moved inwards to a distance of around 0.001 ...
The energetic streams are together 23 million light-years in length—roughly as long as 140 Milky Way galaxies lined end to end ...
New infrared image highlights star formation triggered by merger-in-progress. Arp 107, a pair of interacting galaxies, shines ...
This week, we examine the recent pager explosions in the Middle East, which have reignited concerns about further escalation ...
The James Webb Space Telescope has imaged a collision between two galaxies that appears to have created a beaming smile in ...
NASA's Hubble Space Telescope helped astronomers find more supermassive black holes in the early universe than previous estimates.
An interaction between an elliptical galaxy and a spiral galaxy, collectively known as Arp 107, seems to have given the ...
A new image from the James Webb Space Telescope captures one of the universe's most dramatic events: the colliding of two galaxies.
Smile for the camera! An interaction between an elliptical galaxy and a spiral galaxy, collectively known as Arp 107, seems to have given the spiral a happier outlook thanks to the two bright “eyes” ...
"The [energy released from gas falling into the] the supermassive black hole is removing large amounts of gas very fast from ...
A never-before-seen group of galaxies, known as the Little Red Dots, were first spotted by the new Webb Telescope.
