Leading scientist Professor Avi Loeb argued it’s “arrogant” to believe we’re alone in a universe teeming with billions of ...

Explore the imaginative worlds of The Teeming Universe, a speculative biology project by Christian Cline that envisions ...

Astronomers have used the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) to peer into the early universe and uncover the building blocks of galaxies during their formative years. The CRISTAL ...

If you look across space with a telescope, you'll see countless galaxies, most of which host large central black holes, ...

Cosmic dawn galaxies seen by JWST reveal hidden clues about dark matter and keep rival theories about its true nature alive.

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have found the most distant (and thus the earliest) massive "dead" galaxy to date. The discovery suggests that galaxies were "dying" much ...

JWST observations show that early galaxies were chaotic, gas-filled systems rather than stable disks. Researchers from Cambridge studied over 250 galaxies and found most were turbulent, still forming ...

Astronomers have peered back in time to find what looks like a population of 'hidden' galaxies that could hold the key to unlocking some of the universe's secrets. If their existence is confirmed it ...

Astronomers peering back deep in time into the distant universe think they may have discovered a population of previous hidden galaxies that could shake up astrophysics. The research, based on data ...

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 ...

If there is an absolute law in the universe, it’s that nothing can travel faster than the speed of light. For science-fiction enthusiasts, that’s a bit depressing. Space is big, and while the speed of ...
