Astronomers have caught multiple massive galaxies in the act of merging about 4 billion years ago. This discovery, made possible by combining the power of the best ground- and space-based telescopes, ...

Using the Subaru Telescope's wide-field camera, astronomers have discovered a previously unknown structure surrounding a tiny ...

Dozens of dwarf galaxies swarming around the Andromeda Galaxy like bees have been caught on camera by the Hubble Space Telescope, which took more than a thousand orbits of the Earth to take enough ...

The James Webb Space Telescope's discovery of unusually bright and massive galaxies soon after the Big Bang has cast doubt on the standard model of galaxy evolution and bolstered a rival theory for ...

The galaxy cluster appears hotter and more mature than it should for its young age, challenging what we think we know about ...

About 250 million light-years away, there’s a neighborhood of our universe that astronomers had considered quiet and unremarkable. But now, scientists have uncovered an enormous, bizarre galaxy ...

JWST has identified nine distant, compact galaxies that do not fit existing categories, raising new questions about how galaxies formed in the early Universe.

Structures known as "zippers" and "twisters" in the early universe may explain why dwarf galaxies tend to line up with each other, as well as hint at how dark matter operates in the universe. When you ...

Astronomers have discovered a rare starless galaxy-like cloud known as a RELHIC, providing the strongest evidence yet for a cornerstone prediction of the Lambda CDM model: that many small dark matter ...
