From the Andromeda Galaxy to the Magellanic clouds, check out these 7 vibrant images of galaxies nearest to the Milky Way ...

A group of astronomers have made history by capturing an image of a record number of stars from a time when the universe was ...

This discrepancy is largely due to a fundamental limitation of our observations, originating from our position in the central plane of the Milky Way's disk. Our location limits the volume of ...

Scientists have uncovered the existence of a binary star system close to the black hole near the center of the Milky Way galaxy.

“This discrepancy is largely due to a fundamental limitation of our observations, originating from our position in the central plane of the Milky Way’s disk.” “Our location limits the volume of ...

Astronomers using the James Webb Space Telescope have discovered dozens of ancient stars in the distant Dragon Arc galaxy, revealing new insights into the universe's formation and evolution.

But around the cosmic time that we are seeing the Firefly Sparkle, Milky Way-like galaxy progenitors were about 10,000 times less massive than today’s Milky Way. Hopefully with the collaboration ...

Our solar system takes about 240 million years to orbit the Milky Way just once. This new NASA Hubble Space Telescope image features NGC 6951, an intermediate spiral galaxy 78 million light-years away ...

Astronomers have made a groundbreaking discovery: a binary star orbiting perilously close to the supermassive black hole at the center of our galaxy, Sagittarius A*. This stellar pair defies ...

The lab released a new image of two galaxies merging, which teases the fate of the Milky Way. The galactic merger is located around 60 million light-years away from Earth. In the image ...

At the centre of the Milky Way is a supermassive black hole called Sagittarius A*. It is roughly 27,000 light years from Earth and 23.5 million kilometres in diameter. In a world first, a team of ...
