James Webb Space Telescope finds galaxies pointing toward a dark matter alternative
A new study suggests galaxies in the early universe appear much larger and brighter than expected, precisely as predicted by modified Newtonian dynamics, or MOND.
Euclid 'dark universe' telescope reveals 1st breathtaking images from massive 'cosmic atlas' map
The "first page" of an incredible cosmic atlas being built by the Euclid Space Telescope has been released. The millions of stars and galaxies represent just 1% of the 3D map the mission will create.
Record-breaking ancient spinning galaxy challenges cosmic evolution theories
Astronomers have discovered the most distant and, thus, earliest strongly rotating galaxy ever seen that is well-organized rather than chaotic and messy, challenging our theories of cosmic evolution.
Massive radio survey reveals our universe's structure at the largest scales
New observations from the MeerKAT radio survey suggest our estimates of the cosmic dipole effect are actually in line with the large scale structure of the universe.
Just how dark is the universe? NASA's New Horizons probe gives us best estimate yet
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft, which flew by Pluto in 2015, has offered the best-yet estimates of how dark deep space truly is.
Supercharged 'cocoon of energy' may power the brightest supernovas in the universe
Every so often, astronomers detect a supernova explosion that's 100 times brighter than it should be. A new paper may reveal the strange source of these "superluminous" supernovas.
Early galaxies weren't mystifyingly massive after all, James Webb Space Telescope finds
Black holes may be behind why the newborn universe appeared to possess more huge galaxies than scientists could explain, a new study finds.
How AI is revealing the universe's original 'settings'
Astronomers used artificial intelligence to calculate the five cosmological parameters that describe the entire universe in computer simulations with unprecedented precision.
