Searching for the supernova neutrino background to the universe
It's a sobering statement that stars like the sun, more accurately all stars will die eventually—yes, even the sun. Don't panic, though, we still have a good few billion years to go so you will get to the end of this article. The more massive stars.....»»
How "the strong force" influences the gravitational wave background
Gravitationally speaking, the universe is a noisy place. A hodgepodge of gravitational waves from unknown sources streams unpredictably around space, including possibly from the early universe......»»
A black hole discovery could force us to rethink how galaxies came to be
Peering deep into the infancy of the universe, the European Southern Observatory's Very Large Telescope (VLT) recently confirmed the discovery of the brightest and fastest growing quasar. Quasars are luminous objects in the night sky powered by gas f.....»»
Webb finds dwarf galaxies reionized the universe
Using the unprecedented capabilities of the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, an international team of scientists has obtained the first spectroscopic observations of the faintest galaxies during the first billion years of the universe. These.....»»

New measurement captures clearer picture of our galaxy and beyond
With unique capabilities to track microwave energy fluctuations, a small observatory in the Andes mountains of northern Chile produced maps of 75% of the sky as part of an effort to measure the universe's origin and evolution more accurately......»»
Astronomers detect an extremely red supermassive black hole in the early universe growing in the shadows
Analyzing images from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), a group of astronomers led by Dr. Lukas Furtak and Prof. Adi Zitrin from Ben-Gurion University of the Negev has detected an extremely red, gravitationally lensed supermassive black hole in.....»»
Daily Telescope: Finally, we’ve found the core of a famous supernova
In the astronomy community, SN 1987A has somewhat legendary status. Enlarge / Webb has observed the best evidence yet for emission from a neutron star at the site of Supernova 1987A. (credit: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, et. al.).....»»

Solar physics: Why study it? What can it teach us about finding life beyond Earth?
Universe Today has investigated the importance of studying impact craters, planetary surfaces, exoplanets, and astrobiology, and what these disciplines can teach both researchers and the public about finding life beyond Earth. Here, we will discuss t.....»»
Scientists closer to finding quantum gravity theory after measuring gravity on microscopic level
Scientists are a step closer to unraveling the mysterious forces of the universe after working out how to measure gravity on a microscopic level......»»
This famous supernova remnant is hiding a secret
Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have peered into the famous SN 1987A supernova remnant and found something special inside......»»

Astronomers find first strong evidence of neutron star remnant of exploding star
An international team of astronomers including UCL's (University College London's) Professor Mike Barlow has discovered the first conclusive evidence that a neutron star exists at the center of Supernova 1987A, a star explosion observed 37 years ago......»»
Astronomers observe the effect of dark matter on the evolution of the galaxies
Dark matter comprises around 85% of all the matter in the universe. Although ordinary matter absorbs, reflects and emits light, dark matter cannot be seen directly, which makes its detection difficult. Its existence is inferred from its gravitational.....»»
Solar-driven green synthesis of epoxides
Research published in the journal Science China Chemistry is expected to serve as comprehensive background knowledge and to provide researchers with insight into the recent developments of solar-driven green synthesis of epoxides......»»
Cate Blanchett nails the outlaw look as Lilith in Borderlands official trailer
Welcome to the "weirdest, most dangerous, dumpster fire of a world in the universe." Cate Blanchett stars as an infamous outlaw named Lilith in director Eli Roth's Borderlands, adapted from the popular gaming franchise. The Borderla.....»»
JWST sees a Milky Way-like galaxy coming together in the early universe
The gigantic galaxies we see in the universe today, including our own Milky Way galaxy, started out far smaller. Mergers throughout the universe's 13.7 billion years gradually assembled today's massive galaxies. But they may have begun as mere star c.....»»
