In a season whose carols extol seraphic skies, local astronomers are taking steps to keep the stars shimmering year-round.

When it comes to belonging and identity, tonight’s glittering drag artists are light years from staid science clubs of yore.

The last few public viewings using the high-powered telescope in UPEI's observatory have drawn bigger crowds than usual.

Overall, this telescope is a great choice for beginning your celestial journey. It's affordable, lightweight and easy to navigate — and Celestron goes the extra mile to assist in your ...

Catadioptric telescopes fall into two broad categories: Maksutov-Cassegrain and Schmidt-Cassegrain. Schmidt-Cassegrains traditionally have bigger apertures, while Maksutov-Cassegrains usually have ...

Put simply, Maksutov-Cassegrain telescopes correct problems you might find in a reflector telescope, such as the 'coma' effect, where images appear blurred. They have sealed optics, so you don't ...

Even small asteroids can do a lot of damage—and new research shows the James Webb Space Telescope is adept at spotting the tiniest of space rocks. A time-lapse of images from NASA’s James Webb ...

The image, using data taken by several space telescopes, shows a star cluster called NGC 602, located in a nearby satellite galaxy of the Milky Way called the Small Magellanic Cloud. The image ...

In this paper, we presented a novel technique for mapping and calibrating the primary beam response of VLITE, a commensal telescope situated near the prime focus of an offset Cassegrain optical path.

After the Hubble Space Telescope studied the oldest-known exoplanet in the galaxy, scientists used the James Webb Space Telescope to learn how planets were able to form in the early universe.
