Leading scientist Professor Avi Loeb argued it’s “arrogant” to believe we’re alone in a universe teeming with billions of ...

Cosmic dawn galaxies seen by JWST reveal hidden clues about dark matter and keep rival theories about its true nature alive.

If you look across space with a telescope, you'll see countless galaxies, most of which host large central black holes, ...

A spiral galaxy, shaped much like our Milky Way, has been found in an era when astronomers believed such well-formed galaxies ...

Recent research suggests that galaxies with high radio emissions—known as “radio-bright” galaxies—could be home to alien civilizations. This idea, explored in Brian C. Lacki’s study Artificial ...

JWST observations show that early galaxies were chaotic, gas-filled systems rather than stable disks. Researchers from Cambridge studied over 250 galaxies and found most were turbulent, still forming ...

Using the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), astronomers have found the most distant (and thus the earliest) massive "dead" galaxy to date. The discovery suggests that galaxies were "dying" much ...

Astronomers have peered back in time to find what looks like a population of 'hidden' galaxies that could hold the key to unlocking some of the universe's secrets. If their existence is confirmed it ...

Astronomers peering back deep in time into the distant universe think they may have discovered a population of previous hidden galaxies that could shake up astrophysics. The research, based on data ...

Structures known as "zippers" and "twisters" in the early universe may explain why dwarf galaxies tend to line up with each other, as well as hint at how dark matter operates in the universe.
