For the first time, astronomers have traced a fast radio burst (FRB) to the outskirts of an ancient, dead, elliptical galaxy—an unprecedented home for a phenomenon previously associated with much younger galaxies.
Astronomers have discovered an intriguing, potentially habitable, super-earth not far from us in cosmic terms.
Stargazers can witness a rare 'planet parade' in January and February 2024, where six planets align prominently in the night sky. Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn can be seen with the naked eye, while Uranus and Neptune require telescopes.
HD 20794 d completes its orbit just shy of two Earth years, placing it well within reach of conditions that might harbor life.
Researchers from the University of Oxford have discovered an exoplanet dubbed HD 20794 d that could have the right conditions for life.
Huge breakthrough in the search for aliens: NASA discovers a 'super Earth' exoplanet just 20 light-years away that could have the right conditions to support life For millennia, humans have asked whether we are alone in the universe, yet the discovery of aliens still eludes us.
The study of exoplanets has come a long way since the first detection of a planet orbiting a star other than the Sun in 1995. This groundbreaking discovery, achieved through the radial velocity (RV) technique,
In the modern universe, for galaxies close to our own Milky Way, supermassive black holes tend to have masses equal to around 0.01% of the stellar mass of their host galaxy. Thus, for every 10,000 ...
