Astronomers using ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA) have created a stunning 80-million-pixel image of the star cluster...
Using data from ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) and Keck telescope, astronomers have discovered a binary star system in the S star cluster close to...
In 2003, Hubble provided evidence of a massive exoplanet around a very old star. Such stars possess only small amounts of heavier elements that are the...
Nicknamed the Firefly Sparkle, the newly-discovered galaxy existed approximately 600 million years after the Big Bang and consisted of a least 10 star...
Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), astronomers have captured high-resolution images of eight protoplanetary disks in Sigma...
Cygnus OB2 is the nearest massive young stellar association to our Sun.
In this new composite image, the Chandra data (purple) shows the diffuse X-ray...
NGC 1386 is a spiral galaxy located 53 million light-years away in the constellation of Eridanus.
This image of NGC 1386 combines data from VST and ALMA....
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have detected a population of 64 brown dwarf candidates with masses ranging from 50 to 84...
The Hubble team has released a striking new photo taken by the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope of the open cluster NGC 346, which resides in one of our...
Using the Near-Infrared Imager and Slitless Spectrograph (NIRISS) instrument on the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope, astronomers have discovered...
Using data from the MeerKAT radio telescope and NSF’s Green Bank Telescope, astronomers have discovered ten new millisecond plusars in the globular cluster...
Using data from ESO’s Very Large Telescope (VLT) and other telescopes, astronomers have found evidence for an intermediate-mass black hole in IRS 13,...
Using more than 500 images from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope, astronomer have found evidence for a 20,000-solar-mass black hole at the center of...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA/CSA James Webb Space Telescope have spotted at least five young globular clusters within SPT 0615-JD1 (also known as the...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have produced two outstanding images of NGC 5253, which is considered a dwarf starburst galaxy and...
With an estimated distance of 140 parsecs (457 light-years), the L-subdwarf star CWISE J124909+362116.0 (J1249+36 for short) has a total speed of at least...
Astronomers using the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have captured a striking image of NGC 2005, a globular cluster located 162,000 light-years away from...
NGC 6440 is a typical massive, obscured and contaminated globular cluster formed and orbiting within the bulge of our Milky Way Galaxy.
