New research suggests that a massive, unidentified object might have passed through our Solar System billions of years ago, leaving a lasting imprint on the orbits of our planets. This intriguing hypothesis,

Nearly all galaxies in the universe are either spiral or elliptical in shape, but very rarely one appears in the shape of a ring. How does it form? In this composite view of the Cartwheel galaxy ... This view of Uranus and its rings is the best one ...

For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) to the outskirts of an ancient, dead, elliptical galaxy—an unprecedented home for a phenomenon previously associated with much younger galaxies.

These FRBs, named FRB 20240209A, are located outside of the massive ancient elliptical galaxy it is associated with that only contains old and dead stars, Shah said. Using the James Webb Space ...

At the end of its Unpacked event today, Samsung teased the upcoming Galaxy S25 Edge, also known as the Galaxy S25 Slim in the rumor mill until today. We were at Samsung's event in San Jose ...

The Galaxy S25 Ultra starts at $1,300 like last year's Galaxy S24 Ultra. As the largest and most expensive phone in Samsung's Galaxy S lineup, it includes a bigger 6.9-inch screen, a high ...

Astronomer Calvin Leung was excited last summer to crunch data from a newly commissioned radio telescope to precisely pinpoint the origin of repeated bursts of intense radio waves—so-called fast radio bursts (FRBs)—emanating from somewhere in the northern constellation Ursa Minor.

The Hubble Space Telescope completes a high-resolution portrait of our galaxy's gorgeous neighbor, which will help scientists better understand our Milky Way.

Dec. 20, 2024 — One of the biggest mysteries in science -- dark energy -- doesn't actually exist, according to researchers looking to solve the riddle of how the Universe is expanding. For the ...

The alignment of seven planets in the night sky has captivated observers for centuries, inspiring awe and curiosity. This celestial event, commonly referred to as a planetary parade, is not just a visual spectacle but also a significant opportunity for scientific inquiry.

Investigating the enigmatic origins of fast radio bursts (FRBs) has taken a surprising turn. These millisecond-long radio flares, radiating immense energy, have traditionally been linked to galaxies with active star formation.
