The Milky Way has just been reconstructed in unprecedented detail, with artificial intelligence helping astronomers track the ...
An international team of researchers has performed a mind-bending simulation of the Milky Way. For the first time, the team successfully performed a simulation of over 100 billion individual stars, ...
Apples-to-apples comparisons in the distant universe are hard to come by. Whether the subject is dwarf galaxies, supermassive black holes, or “hot Jupiters,” astronomers can spend months or years ...

Stars usually form in clusters, which can also form in pairs or groups. Binary clusters (BCs) are defined as pairs of open ...
Astronomers have captured what appears to be a snapshot of a massive collision of giant asteroids in Beta Pictoris, a neighboring star system known for its early age and tumultuous planet-forming ...
Recent research led by Lowell Observatory found information about how planets are formed through studying the DF Tau binary star system. The study combined data from the Atacama Large ...

With a gravitational field so strong that not even light can escape its grip, black holes are probably the most interesting and bizarre objects in the universe. Black holes are usually formed from the ...
The combination of theoretical models and empirical data provides a new perspective for understanding the complex interactions between young stars and their environments. A study led by Paolo Padoan, ...
When scientists viewed the James Webb Space Telescope’s (JWST) first images of the universe’s earliest galaxies, they were shocked. The young galaxies appeared too bright, too massive and too mature ...
