Scientists have found a remarkably small yet bright object from the early universe that doesn’t make sense in our existing models of how stars and galaxies formed, even our own Milky Way. That means ...
About a century ago, scientists were struggling to reconcile what seemed a contradiction in Albert Einstein’s theory of general relativity. Published in 1915, and already widely accepted worldwide by ...
Scientists have shared a new theory about how the universe might end, not by fading away slowly, but by collapsing in on itself in what they call a “reverse Big Bang.” The idea suggests that after ...
The vast majority of matter is dark – invisible until it is detected only through its gravitational effects. The newly discovered object could be a clump of dark matter, or it could also be a compact, ...
I/ATLAS was first discovered on July 1, 2025, by the ATLAS telescope system in Hawaii. Its hyperbolic orbit, a trajectory not ...
An anomaly in the temperature of the universe has long stumped physicists, and a new analysis of data from several radio telescopes has only deepened the mystery of what is causing it. This weird ...
A space professor who helped design a groundbreaking satellite has said it will "profoundly change our understanding of the universe". The Euclid satellite, launched by Elon Musk's Space X company, ...
