Recent astronomical research indicates that our Earth may be embedded within one of the largest known structures in the ...

The study reveals several discrepancies between the observations of local galaxy groups and the current cosmological simulations used to model galaxy formation.

Two colliding galaxies have been found to be reorganizing their dwarf satellites, potentially solving a major conundrum plaguing the standard model of cosmology.

Ursa Major III was initially classified as an ultra-faint dwarf galaxy, and Keck's DEIMOS spectrograph measured the stars' ...

And that is a problem! Simulations of galaxy formation and evolution do not produce rotating galaxies at that time (930 million years after the Big Bang) with a large number of clumps.

Pictures are the key to new insights in the field of astrophysics. Such images include simulations of cosmic events, which astrophysicists at UZH use to investigate how stars, planets and galaxies ...

We already know a decent amount about how planets form, but moon formation is another process entirely, and one we're not as familiar with. Scientists think they understand how the most important ...

Hubble has captured the faint beauty of NGC 45, a spiral galaxy in Cetus whose glowing pink star-forming clouds reveal hidden activity. It belongs to the rare class of low surface brightness ...

Thought to be some kind of galaxy, the Little Red Dots were spotted by the James Webb Space Telescope and have stumped astronomers for years.

Distant galaxy’s black hole offers extraordinary glimpse into the Milky Way’s future Most distant spiral galaxy ever found shatters theories of cosmic formation Rethinking Galaxy Growth ...
