Astronomers have unveiled one of the most ambitious maps yet of the early universe, revealing a vast "sea of light" between ...

A unique technique allowed astronomers to see the early universe as a "sea of light" and explore the effects of gravity and dark energy on cosmic evolution.

Astronomers with the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX) have used data from the project to make the ...

A monster galaxy from the early universe shows that the cosmos was rich with oxygen when it was only less than 3% of its present age, astronomers have found. The discovery raises questions about how ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have spotted the most distant “jellyfish galaxy” ever seen — a cosmic oddity streaming long, tentacle-like trails of gas and newborn stars as it speeds ...

Astronomers have discovered the universe's most ancient spiral galaxy yet, a cosmic structure that dates back roughly 10.7 billion years, a new study reveals. The galactic find, discovered by ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered a rare jellyfish galaxy 8.5 billion light-years from Earth, offering a pristine look at how cosmic environments violently shut down ...

A galaxy made almost entirely of dark matter, an elusive form of matter that doesn’t interact with light, was spotted by Hubble 250 million light-years from Earth.

Astronomer and Queen guitarist Brian May teams up with astrophysicist Derek Ward-Thompson to bring the cosmos to 3D.

A team of astronomers looking at galaxies in the universe’s distant past have discovered nine young, compact galaxies, each weighing in at 200 billion times the mass of the Sun. Imagine receiving an ...

Astronomers have spotted what may be one of the universe’s earliest barred spiral galaxies — a striking cosmic structure forming just 2 billion years after the Big Bang. The galaxy, COSMOS-74706, ...
