A nearby galaxy is behaving strangely—and now scientists know why. The Small Magellanic Cloud’s stars move in chaotic ...
Astronomers have detected ordered magnetic fields in galaxies so young that conventional models struggle to explain how those fields formed so fast. Observations from the Atacama Large ...
Samsung may finally ditch the 4,400mAh limit. Leaked Galaxy Z Fold 8 specs suggest a 5,000mAh battery upgrade to rival the S26 Ultra.
What Looked Like a Planet Was Actually a Massive Space Collision So, imagine astronomers are looking at something, thinking, ‘Wow, cool planet!’ Then, bam! Turns out it wasn’t a planet at all, but a ...
How fast can a galaxy build ordered magnetic fields spanning thousands of light-years? Existing theories say several billion years, but observations of galaxies in our universe imply shorter ...
A nearby galaxy is undergoing a major transformation, and astronomers are watching the process unfold in real time ...
T he first time I heard about galaxies without dark matter, I was sitting in my very first graduate class at the University of São Paulo. It was 2018, and the discovery had just ...
The Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) is one of the Milky Way's closest galactic neighbors—a small, gas-rich galaxy visible to the ...
Stars are born deep inside vast clouds of gas and dust scattered throughout galaxies. Through powerful gravitational forces, these cosmic nurseries slowly collapse until new stars ignite. This video ...
Researchers have identified a potential mechanism that explains how turbulent plasma can produce the vast, ordered magnetic fields observed across the universe Cosmic magnetic fields are everywhere, ...
For billions of years before reaching its current location, the Sun may have slowly travelled as part of a large group, or “wave,” of stars drifting out from the inner parts of the Milky Way. This ...
Scientists have uncovered evidence that our Sun may have traveled across the Milky Way as part of a massive migration of ...
