In a stunning revelation from the James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have discovered the Infinity Galaxy—a figure-eight collision of cosmic titans potentially forging a supermassive black hole from ionized chaos,...
Astronomers have found a supermassive black hole sitting alone in the young universe, with no galaxy in sight. The discovery is forcing cosmologists to rethink how everything—stars, galaxies, even dark...
Astronomers have caught a single titanic stellar explosion in the act of being pulled apart and magnified by intervening galaxies, opening a radically precise new way to weigh the universe’s...
Astronomers have identified a distant galaxy whose stars and gas behave as if embedded in a cloud of negative mass, forcing cosmologists to rethink gravity, dark matter, and the fate...
Astronomers have captured the first-ever spatially resolved images of a superluminous supernova bent by gravity from distant galaxies, offering a magnified glimpse into a cosmic explosion from 10 billion years...
