Our corner of the universe looks tidy at first glance. But pull back, and patterns begin to surface that stretch across billions of light-years. New mapping work hints that our own galaxy belongs to a much larger basin shaped by gravity, while a separate find reveals a vast, ring-like arrangement of distant galaxies. The work was led by …

IN A NUTSHELL 🔭 Researchers discovered a significant pattern in the rotational direction of ancient galaxies using the James Webb Space Telescope. 🌀 Approximately 60% of these galaxies rotate clockwise, challenging the previous belief of random galactic rotations. 🌌 A bold hypothesis suggests that our universe might be trapped within a massive black hole. 🔍 Alternative explanations consider observational bias, …

A monster galaxy from the early universe shows that the cosmos was rich with oxygen when it was only less than 3% of its present age, astronomers have found. The discovery raises questions about how early life could have first appeared in the universe. This isn’t the first time astronomers have looked at that enigmatic galaxy, named JADES-GS-z11-0. It was …

New observations of a pair of colliding spiral galaxies hint at what might be in store for the Milky Way and the Andromeda galaxy if and when they collide. The findings, described in July in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, may also help to solve a puzzle plaguing the standard model of cosmology. The two colliding …

Astronomers have made a groundbreaking discovery that unveils one of the universe’s greatest mysteries: the elusive ordinary matter that lies between galaxies. For decades, scientists have struggled to detect the full extent of normal matter, which makes up stars, planets, and everything we know. This matter is vastly different from dark matter, which is invisible and detectable only through its …

Hundreds of unexpectedly energetic objects have been discovered throughout the distant universe, possibly hinting that the cosmos was far more active during its infancy than astronomers once believed. Using deep-field images from NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), researchers at the University of Missouri identified 300 unusually bright objects in the early universe. While they could be galaxies, astronomers aren’t …

Among the hundreds of billions of galaxies that stretch across the known universe, even the smallest members can reveal secrets about our cosmic history. But even as we discover new galaxies, astronomers suspect that many small “dwarf” galaxies remain hidden from view. Only a fraction of the size of the Milky Way, these galaxies have thus far been too faint …

IN A NUTSHELL 🔭 The James Webb Space Telescope discovers over a dozen dormant galaxies in the early universe. 🌀 Supermassive black holes and neighboring galaxies likely halt star formation by depleting or heating cold gas. 🌟 The stop-and-go pattern of star formation is supported by the discovery of 14 galaxies with varying masses. 🔍 Future JWST programs aim to …
