NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has released its largest near-infrared image ever taken enabling astronomers to map the origin of our universes rarest galaxies.
Searching in a dwarf galaxy, scientists have found a previously overlooked cache of massive black holes which may prove influential for future space research.
Using the European Southern Observatory’s Very Large Telescope (ESO’s VLT), researchers reveal recent changes in the atmospheric temperature on Neptune.
The COSPAR Panel on Potentially Environmentally Detrimental Activities in Space (PEDAS) raise awareness of the human footprint on space, particularly the resulting space debris.
It has been scientifically accepted that Earth's closest black hole is about 1,000 light-years away - but now, research suggests that black hole doesn't exist.
![Figure 1 - The figure illustrates the diversity and multi-scale nature of the structures in the Galaxy. The first two lines are real astronomical images, which go from the galactic disk itself and down to the planet-forming disks. The last two lines are generated from numerical simulations and aim to understand and interpret the observations.
